Picture 1 “The Beautiful SADE”: This is an image of a famous soul singer named Sade. I chose this picture because to me she is a very beautiful natural woman and the photography captures the essence of her face and beauty. The light and depth of field makes you focus on her facial tones. There is a slight shadow casting over the lower portion of her body, which causes the viewer to stay focused on the upper portion of her face; the soft depth of field on the background keeps the viewers attention centered on the middle of the image where her face is.
Picture 2 “Frazier Misses”: This is a famous image of the boxer Muhammad Ali dodging a vicious punch from Heavy Weight Champion Joe Frazier. I chose this photo because of the visual capturing that was used in the photography. The lights make you focus on the two boxers in the center of the ring. The angle makes Ali seem extra long and allusive. The picture was taken at a lower angle making the two fighters look big, strong, and powerful. I thought it was intriguing that you can actually see the lights in the photo, but yet it doesn’t take away from the focus of the fighters.
Picture 3 “Ali Punch”: This is a photo of Muhammad Ali delivering a furious left hand to boxer Floyd Patterson. I chose this image because it captured the strength and power of Ali’s punch. It is a mid waist shot and the lights are deemed on every part of the photo but Ali’s powerful left hand. To make the left arm even more powerful you see Floyd balling up for cover. The background being pitch black helped the viewer focus on the punch and two fighters even more.
