I chose to put these photos together because they all have clean cut edges that work well together. These pictures are also from the same area so I also wanted to show how snow can have a different effect than regular weather in Washington.

This produce isn’t the only thing that has traveled to their final destination. What they came in has, too, moved across many lands; just as the ground we walk along, trailing yet leading us as we gander about the stores. Taking advantage of the foods I eat and the baggage that holds it, here is what is inside The Central of Markets.

I chose Nan Goldin as my favorite Photographer solely on her Portfolio/Diary entitled “The Ballad of Sexual Dependency”. She was able to capture such sensual photographs that intentionally look Unintentional. The tone of some pictures are moody yet erotic. Many of her subjects consisted of LGBTQ+ bodies

Nan’s subjects were usually people of sexual abuse, medicated, and suffering from HIV. She captured moments and expressions of pure Euphoria and pain. She is one of my favorite photographers for those very reasons, in my opinion that’s what makes a true Artist.

I choose Cindy Sherman, not only because her photographs are extraordinary but her photographs explore her made-up identities but only by photographing herself. Cindy Sherman was born on January 19, 1954, and is currently 65. When I googled “famous photographer” she wasn’t too far down the list but something told me to pick her, I saw the first couple images and I was confused, thinking what is this. After further researched I found out she is not just a photographer, she is a model, a hairdresser, and a makeup artist, Cindy would place herself in her own work with different disguises and appearances. I thought it was cool that this is how she expressed herself. Cindy’s work was often linked to feminism, social role-playing, and sexual stereotypes. 

Cindy’s work is amusing to me but others may see it as disturbing or a disaster at first glance. I think that Cindy Sherman’s work is funny, I feel like I connect with her photographs because when I was first allowed to wear makeup I had to learn how to use it, but after learning how to use makeup I liked doing goofy makeup on everybody and making myself look like someone or something else. I think that every single different self-portraits she has ever made is meant to have its own life, a story that isn’t real but the picture is proof of that character. Cindy Sherman’s work catches the eye, but I didn’t understand her work until I read about her.

American photographer, freelancer, and photojournalist who has been a member of Magnum Photos since 1986, and is famous for his National Geographic photo titled “Afghan Girl.”

My favorite portrait photo and one of National Geographic’s most well known photo covers was photographed by Steve Mccurry, and appeared on the cover of National Geographic magazines June 1985 issue .

To capture this image Mccurry had disguised himself in Afghani garbs, and had crossed over the Pakistan border while the area was in the midst of war. Once in rebel controlled Afghanistan, he came upon a number of buildings and houses that had recently been bombed. With his camera gear hidden under is clothing he had managed to capture an image of an Afghan girl with green eyes and a red scarf draped over her head staring intensely into the camera. The girls name was found out to be Sharbat Gula, and the portrait photo Mccurry had taken of her became one of the most recognizable photos in National Geographic history. With many likening the portrait photo to Leonardo da Vinci’s, the Mona Lisa, the photo itself has since then been widely used for various brochures, posters, calender’s, and other medias.

Mccurrys photos concentrate more on human relations, and how things like war take a toll on the populous. Bringing the issues third world individuals deal with to western eyes.
