The above photo of Joey Peterson who finished first place in the 4A boys cross country state championship is probably my favorite photo that I took this term. I really like how the background clearly shows that it is a meet with the crowd and the other runners but they don't take away from the main subject. The main runner's whole body is in the frame and both of his feet are off the ground so I did a good job of freezing the action which was the main goal of the assignment. It reflects what I learned in photojournalism by his expression. A huge part of good photojournalism photos is the expression of the subject. Not only does the main subject have a good facial expression but you can tell the other boys do to. It is also a good example of how to crop a photo for the paper because that is also super important. There is no clutter! And lastly, the main thing that I learned this term is that good photojournalism tells a story and I think this photo does that. I think the m...

Week 5 Blog Post

LYNDSEY ADDARIO I am absolutely loving Lyndsey Addario’s book It’s What I Do. I think it’s incredible what she has been through and that even when she’s in the lowest of lows or her life is literally in danger that she continues to shoot and those experiences drive her and make her love it even more. It’s amazing that she has this calling that very few people do. Especially as a woman! In her book she mentions in multiple places that she was if not the only female, one of very few females in the workplace. There have been two things that have really made an impression on me.

Specifically what I have in mind is the end of chapter 4 and the beginning of chapter 5 when she is sitting on the couch in her apartment and the news of the 9/11 terrorist attacks comes on the news and she immediately knows what that means for her. That she must go as soon as she can. When you think of a terrorist attack you t...

Photographer of the Week

I chose to research photographer Lee Jeffries for this assignment. The reason I chose Lee Jeffries is because his photos really caught my eye. They are so distinctly his work and I think that is really cool for a photographer to have. His "claim to fame" is photographing black and white images of homeless people all around the world. My favorite picture of Jeffries is the one below. This photo, like many of Jeffries work shows so much emotion. This one is a little different because most of them focus on the subjects eyes but I really like how this one shows so much emotion without even needing to see the eyes. This photo is actually of a homeless sex worker without the wig she usually wears.   Photo taken from DailyMail.com https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2608543/Photographer-Lee-Jeffries-uncovers-haunting-human-face-drug-addiction-homelessness-poverty.html Lee Jeffries got the idea of photographing homeless people when he came across a young homeless gi...
