The five photos I chose are examples of the thing itself, detail, frame, time, and vantage point, as described by John Szarkowski in The Photographer's Eye. Some are even combinations of these five components, which makes for an even more intriguing photo. I chose photos that I felt were interesting in angle, subject, lighting, and perspective. I tend to be drawn to details, colors, and subject matter which I think I also exposed in these photos. The photo titled "Detail" in particular, is a combination of timing, lighting, detail, vantage point, and framing. Probably one of my favorite of the five. The photo titled "Frame" was originally in color, but after focusing on the subject and the way the light hits the detailing of her hair, and the expression of her mouth, I found it to be more artistic and aesthetically pleasing in black and white. Aside from these five components, I find the collection of the photos to be important. Although they should be unique and different from one another, there should be a cohesiveness to them.
