PLEASE CONTINUE to aid me in my endeavors

So...now for my photography course I need to write a 500-word essay and a "resume", due in a week.

1. Find an intriguing image from the George Eastman House Collection, and write an essay on why you chose it. Include a copy of the image in the essay with photographer's name, title, date, and media.

2. Discuss a current issue in photography that has particular relevance to you. May be a response to an existing body of work, a critical opinion, or contemporary writings on the medium.

RESUME: submit resume outlining education, photographic experience + abilities, computer skills and applications you are familiar with, work experience, related skills, interests, and any special awards (max 2 pages).



So, I was going to do the first one, with one of the following images:


George Eastman House Patricia Bazelon Series


George Eastman House Daguerrotypomania Series


George Eastman House Jericho Series


George Eastman House Degas Visual Environment Series

Now, I need you bros to help me find reasons as to why "I" chose it (one of them). In otherwords, just point things out that you like, or feel free to pick one from the listings. Or of course, write something to current issues in photography today.

<3 y'alls.

The second one looks like the cover of that one album by the Pixies.

Good composition in the first one, you can write about the line and depth, golden thirds, visual weight, lots of shizzle

Digital vs Traditional?

I love the feel that you get from the ruggedness of some of those.

Like they're just shells of past glory.
