Response to form and pressure

 This article is talks a lot about how and what makes a photograph interesting. Talks about how now we are taking a 3D experience and making it 2D how can we maintain that same immersive experience for viewers. He talks about how photographers have to bring order to a scene but I would argue that in this class with my photo montage I brought disorder to the images that I was using for the purpose of confusing the viewer so it doesn't always have to be just one way. Photography doesn't have to bring order. What about photos that were not planned, what if you accidentally hit the button before you were ready these photos can still be very useful and can still be art while not being planned in such a way as being described. 

I like the idea that photographers don't create the image they select the image but I would say that you can still create different pieces with photos in regards to photo arts.

This book shows the different faces of queer individuals. Almost every page in the book is a different format, this is to highlight the differences within the queer community and highlight the nuances of being a queer person and how it strays away from society.  Ellie Saunders (she/they) Candidly queer  A collection of 2SLGBTQ+ portraits Candidly queer is a photo book built to show the diversity of queer faces and the different identities that can be shown within the 2SLGBTQ+ community. The way this photo book is put together is meant to highlight those points exactly. Pages are all different and are that way to show that no two individuals are the same. For this project I have tried my best to capture individuals in the way that they are most comfortable.    I have many people to thank for being part of this project, My friends, partners, family and...
