      Photographer unknown? Cory Archgel ,November 30th 2010 – May 1st 2011 ,Hamburger Bahnhof

I know that this picture is just documenting the artist simply setting up the piece he is showing but I love this photograph, I guess the photographer is unknown.

I had no idea this is how these paintings came about. And not to mention how interesting these images are as original photographs...I never thought this is how his images came about.

At first I did not like this image. But then I kept reading and it was actually interesting to know what this set of images is about and I would like to see more. It was about looking at cultures from our past and not forgetting them. I dont see how this image relates to that but I am willing to look into it.

 I thought that this photograph was amazing, the action is caught just right and the thing that caught my eye the most was the bird in the top left corner that is coming off the image. Its beautiful, not to mention taken by a high schooler.

I thought that this photograph was interesting because of the position of the subject, it is funny to me, and I am trying to develop a style of portraiture and I think  that it is good to keep looking at other artists and how they take portraits to help me develop my own style. I also like the halo around his head.

               I was first attracted to this image because at first glance it looks like Paris. But it's not....

                      I like the shadows that the siding on the house makes. They are very dramatic.

           I like this photograph because I like how the door makes a perfect frame for the perfect subject.

I am attracted to the photograph mostly because of the silhouetted figure and the long shadows the legs make along the sidewalk. I also like how he is perfectly in the same line as the light refection.

I like the bleachers in the back, the lines they make.

                This is my photograph, this photograph makes me laugh and cry at the same time.
