disater in Japan

When I look at these photos, I feel scared because if it happened there it could happen anywhere in the world. It makes me question if the world is really going to end in a year. These pictures are very upsetting to see but it is reality. The photographer used very interesting techniqes, actually all the photos where kust amazing because of there subject.

Touching people

I think the pictures where very interesting and unique. The idea the photographer had is very different view of art. I am very interested in it, If someone came up to me I would at first feel awkward but then after they explaining what it was for I would help and take a picture.

Fasinating advertising

If I saw this, yes I would be interested in buying what ever they where advertising. To me the ad has trying to say they cover ever where, and the picture says just that.

My favorite picture is the picture of Cyndi Lauper posing for the cover of Details. I like this photo because it is very interesting and to me its eye popping. The lighting is perfect for this photo, it brings out every color on her. Her snow like skin, dark eye makeup and bright green clothing. I like the way she posed and how the words don't collide with the photo. From the picture, people can tell its probably about Cyndi Lauper.
