Christina Crespo-Blog 11

Estelle Hanania 





Hanania's pictures depict something odd yet familiar. They are playful and the viewer can almost put themselves in the photo or think of something or sometime that they have experience something similar. Hanania's photos connect with the viewer because the subject is is familiar and the scene is realistic.

These pictures are outdoors and seem to be only using natural light. The shadows in the first and last photo seem to play a big role in composition. The shadow in the middle photo makes the subjects stand out being that the rest of the photo is very light.

I like these pictures because I feel like the subjects make me think of a time or a place that I have seen something like them. I think that it is interesting that the people in the photos are children, It makes me wonder if some of them are just playing around in outfits or if some of them—like the children in the middle—are dressed this way because of their culture.
