Good Photo


This is a good photo because its giving so much meaning and strength. Its showing Obama and Martin Luther King Jr holding hands together but in different time periods. Martin Luther King Jr was once stated that we will have a black president in the future and then Obama stood there and claim the prize. Its showing so much. It shows that there is hope when it comes making a change in society. Also, its showing dont ever give up on a dream you think that is not going to come true. Obama is now serving two terms as a president and no one ever thought that would never happen.

For Your Portolio

The type of photography im interested in is alot but, its one specific im focused on. Graffiti art is something i always wanted to look up or at least go to a subway and take pictures with/of of the graffiti. Also, more things that interest me is models and taking pictures of random people on random streets. More things  that interest me is little kids or group photos.

Photographer

The photographer i choose was Marth Cooper. Also,being an American photojournalist. She was born in Baltimore Maryland in the 1940s. She started doing photography at the age of three. As she got older, she got her degree at age 19 and graudated from Grinnell College. Her best known work is being famous for the New York Post including graffiti. She met up with a guy name Dondi, and while he took pictures, she created a book called Subway Art witch included her work. Also, she explained that graffiti is just an artist writing there name or a nickname of some sort. Some of her photography throughout the years appeared in magazines such as the National Geographic magazine.
