Great Black and White Photographers part III

1.) What first caught your eye while looking at your photographers photos? Is there something in particular about their photos that made you want to choose them?

What caught my eye about Ansel Adam's photos, was that they were so modern compared to the other photographers that we had to choose from. I began to see, looking more into Ansel's photography, that most of my favorite photographers took inspiration from him.

2.) Look at those 2 photos you posted last time in the assignment Great Black and White Photographers Part 2. Use your five senses to tell me more about those photos.

I feel... small grains of sand slowly cut at my face as the wind blows. I feel the cuts to be quickly met with the forgiving wind. I feel the hunger growing in my stomach from the savory smells. I feel the sweat cool all over my body causing me to shiver.
