Color - Week 9.

The majority of images I found that were by Emory Kristof were photographs taken under the ocean, and photographs of the Titanic. These photographs intigued me because I have been really fascinated by the way the ocean looks from fathoms below while sinking, or even the way it looks from under the surface in general from the human perspective. I love the photographs Kristof has taken underneath of the ocean. They are magical and definitely remind me a dream or something made up; something that isn't real, and that is why I love them so much.

I have seen a lot of his photography. I absolutely love his photographs of the ship yards, and also interiors. I found this photograph to be incredibly interesting to me. I have seen the majority of this work, and this on stands out to me for some reason. I guess it may be the lighting, but the detail in the floor, and the machines is absolutely incredible, and I fell in love with this photograph on the spot. I also really enjoy the composition and camera positioning.

I absolutely love this photograph. It's very simple, but the message is powerful and gives me goosebumps. The link between young and old is obvious, and the way the elders hand rests on the child's face to show the wrinkles and worn skin against the new skin, and to show new life and old life is amazing. I also really enjoy how the red from the clothes the child is wearing is seen in the child's lips and the head piece.
