1. In these photos, Mario seemed to consistently shoot from around eye level. He chose to take these photos in black and white which really touch a different feeling for the viewer as opposed to the same photos with color. These photos ate part of his exhibit called Enduring Growth in which he tries to portray the struggle between nature and the man-made environment.
2. It seems as if though Mario is trying to show the relationship between humans and mother nature. You can see the calm and serene nature backgrounds, and then a person or building which clearly interacts and changes the environment completely. I think by having these photos in black and white as opposed to color really creates a deeper feel for what Mario was trying to communicate to us. I enjoyed the fact that he stuck with black and white instead of having just some here and there.
3. I've always had a strong liking for black and white photos. Although color ones are always beautiful and it helps place the viewer in the moment, black and white photos can really give off a stronger edge to what you are looking at and helps you to focus on what the artist is trying to show you as opposed to just looking at the beauty of the colors that you see everyday.
