1. I found this picture on Flickr.com.
2. The photographer is Mahkota Alam.
3. I believe this photo was taking in the early morning or late in the evening. It was uploaded on March 21, 2010.
4. I like this photograph because of how inspiring it can be. Many different people can look at it and see completely different meanings. Someone could look at it and see sadness because the girl is alone but others could look at it and see happiness as though she is becoming a new person. I also really like the color contrast. The girl's shirt and pants really stand out against the background. I like the way that the girls is so simply dressed and there is not to much going on that the picture leaves so much room for interpretation.
5. The type of lighting that is used in this photograph is natural lighting. In the photo there is high contrast between the girl herself, the darkness of the outer edges and the sun. The lighting in the picture is dramatic lighting that is coming from behind the girl.
6. The photographer used composition skills in different ways. She used emphasis up near the girls head where the sun is coming from. The emphasis is created by the sun and how the eye is drawn up towards that part of the photograph. She also used good balance with both sides of the composition with the darkness one each side. She did every well achieving unity since everything in the picture looks right together.
7. I think the photographer was trying to communicate multiple things. I think the photographer made this photo so that people could come up with a meaning for it themselves. I think she did well making it possible for people to interpret this photo in different ways because since the sun is to bright you cannot see the girls face or her emotions so one must come up with the emotions on their own. I can see this photo as someone who is sad and lonely and is not happy with themselves. I see this because the girl is by herself and it seems like she is just walking through a park without reason. I also see this photo as someone becoming a new and being independent and not worried about others. I see this because the sun is so bright like how when the sun rises it is very bright and the beginning of a new day. I also think this because it seems like the girl doesn't care how she looks since what she is wearing is so simple.
