Connecting Essay 4

The photograph I have chosen from the internet is one of two women stood back to back, this is typically a portrait photograph, the photographer has made sure they both look straight down the camera lense which draws attention to them. The photographer has showed examples of contrast in this photograph because he has chosen two women with contrasting hair colours.


I chose one of my photographs from my studio shoot from when we studied Robert Mapplethorpe, I chose this photograph which contains two girls, one with darker hair and brighter clothes and tanned skin and one with blonde hair, pale skin and dark clothes; this is an example of my attempt at showing contrast within my photography, particularly in this shoot.


These two photographs connect because both the women in my photograph are stood back to back and the women in the photograph from the internet are also stood back to back, that mass these photographs incredibly similar. However, my photograph shows more contrast in the way of obviousness and clarity. These photos connect because they both have the same purpose and poses, they are extremely similar.
