Deja Thompson - Weekly Artist Post 15

Ezra Stoller



1) Ezra Stoller uses black and white. It is unclear what the medium is being used. His subjects are center weighted. The pictures seem to be taken in the moment. In all but the top picture Stoller is standing above his subjects, in the first he is standing below them. He seems to be using a f 16 to achieve a good depth of field on the last picture. In the first picture he could be using a f 8 because the background is not in focus. The second picture could be a f 22 or f 32 with a shutter speed of 1/100 due to the stillness of the movement.

2) These pictures are go celebration. Sailors are standing on cars smiling. People are standing in the streets waving flags and cheering. There are people kissing in the street while a man is holding news paper that reads "complete surrender. Perhaps this is the end of a war and people are happy. They are thankful that the war is over and even the police officer is just letting them celebrate.

3)This picture really make me feel something in by heart. With the holidays coming up, especially Thanksgiving this event was truly something to be thankful for. Then when you think about the terrorist attacks that just happen you know that many people are looking forward to a day like this.
