Richard Avedon, Dovima, evening dress by Fath, Paris, August 1950
I liked this fashion photo because of the dramatic way the model is standing and the fact that her whole body is in the photo.

Allen FRAME, Paola, Mexico City, 2007, Chromogenic color print, 30 x 35 1/2 inches
I also like the lighting in this photo. i like the fact that only certain parts of the woman are highlighted and the background is the only color showing.

3 SWELL EXHIBITONS!
Thomas Allen: Epilogue, Blinded, 2009, 24 x 20", Chromogenic Print

This series is definitely one of my favorites! Allen creates these scenes by cutting imagery out with an exacto knife and then photographs it. I particularly liked his work because it deals with the 1950's era that i am drawn to.

Nocolai Howalt: Car Crash Studies, Untitled #1, 2009, Digital C-Print, 71 x 86.5"

I found the Car Crash Series to be very interesting because Howalt takes a certain part of what has been in a crash and he focuses in on it...I like the fact that he is focusing in on what many people would not find pleasing.

Victoria Ryan, Down the Mississippi, Hand-manipulated gelatin silver, 14 x 14" johnstevenson-gallery.com
I chose this photograph because I like the soft lighting throughout the photo and how this gives the whole piece a dream like feel.
