Intent: Either a photo describing the photographers experience at a nude beach, or a portrait gone horribly wrong.
Formal Construction: Shallow depth of field and rich saturated colors.
Influences: Perhaps foreign culture/lifestyle.
I thought this photo related to the assignment because a nude beach as a subject blurs the lines between public and private, in that it is a place where people are safe to proudly bare what is traditionally kept private.
Public
PublicAuthorship: Flickr user Frances Folini http://www.flickr.com/photos/livenature/251642221/
Intent: A look into the lives of the homeless in San Francisco CA.
Formal Construction: Subject matter is interesting. Picture could use more contrast.
Influences: Perhaps a critique on the economy or society.
I thought that it related to the assignment because all of the belongings that this person possesses in the world are clearly visible to the public. This person has absolutely no privacy.
