Black Power Salute by John Dominis in 1968

- October 04, 2018

1. Why did you pick this image? What caught your eye? I picked this image because it looked moving. What caught my eye were the 2 black men holding their fists up. 2. What did you read about the photo and use about 2-3 sentences explaining the photo. The 2 men holding up their fist are American sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos. Dominis quickly zoomed in on them and took the shot. Smith and Carlos wanted to show that everything wasn't alright. You can see how Smith took off his shoes showing off black socks. You can also see that Smith is holding a box that we don't know what's in it. 3. Every photo has some additional information, links, readings, or videos associated.

The photo was taken in the George V Hotel. That night, The Beatles found out that their song "I Want To Hold Your Hand" made Number 1 in the US. The photo shows how happy and excited they are. It also shows how close they were, like brothers almost. 3. Every photo has some additional information, links, readings, or videos associated. What else did you learn in addition to the actual photo? Benson had taken many shots with one frame of each and this one he liked because...

Ethics In Fashion Photography

- October 30, 2018

1. List the changes that were made to the model's face with Photoshop in the computer. (Look carefully) They made here eyes and lips bigger, and they made her neck skinnier and longer. 2. List the changes that were made to the model's body with Photoshop in the computer. (Look carefully) They made here legs longer and slimmer, they made her skinnier and made her but bigger, and they made her her lighter skin tone. 3. List the changes that were made to the model with Photoshop in the computer. (Look carefully) It was a piece of pizza before and they turned it into a model. They made it slimmer, painted it to a regular skin tone, cropped it, and made the pepperoni into a bikini. 4. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like these in a photo? Why or why not? It's not ethically acceptable because the photo doesn't tell the truth about the situation. 5. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation...
