I love the way he uses the comparisons. one is a lingerie model and one is just an everyday woman in her undergarments.

There is something about older peopls faces that add depth strength to these photographs.
I am going to attempt to capture this through shapes and using my backgrounds to my advantage.

I love how the lines all lead to one point and it isn't noticable at first but there is a car on the road. I also love that the road is kinda reversed in color. The black and white  in this pho is almost perfectly balanced.

I think it is awesome that he get these images with theuse of mirrors, metal wires, scaffolding and acrobatics and not through the use of computer manipulation.

So in Craft 1 we were looking at the photo books and i came across this image.

I was just flipping through the JOEL STERNFELD book ON THIS SITE and saw this on i was immediately drawn to the image, composition and the color. I love the way the sun hits the tree so sharply but the color of the sun seem that of sunset.

this image also resinates because in like 2 week we go to NY and I am COMPLETELY DETERMINED TO FIND THIS TREE :)
