Research Photographers
Gueorgui Pinkhasov
I find the image of a rooster in a Tashkent Bazaar photographed by Gueorgui Pinkhasov interesting because I think that roosters are creepy. It reminded me of when I was a baby and I watched Baby Mozart, Baby Bach, and Baby MacDonald and they showed a rooster toy. This toy at first scared me. When I continued to watch it, I was more comfortable with roosters. Another reason why I find this image very interesting is because the people are in shadows and this rooster is in color. I wonder how the photographer was able to get a picture where the only color was the rooster. I wonder if the photographer used software to edit the image.
I find this image of Maria photographed by her husband Lee Friedlander very interesting because she looks pretty. Her face looks serious and mysterious. It appears that the picture is taken outside because there are trees in the background. The picture makes me wonder about many things. I am wondering what she is thinking about. I am wondering if there’s anybody else around there. I am wondering if she has any children. I am wondering what she does for a living. I am wondering what the weather is. I am wondering if she is wearing pants or a skirt. I like pictures that make me think.
Rinko Kawauchi
I find this image of a watermelon photographed by Rinko Kawauchi in his series Cui Cui very interesting because I love watermelons. They are very sweet, and I eat them a lot in the summer. At first, I thought it was a picture of trash that somebody left after it was eaten. I hope they enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed eating watermelon. When I look more closely at the picture, I notice the white circular plate that has a design of leaves, five black seeds, the watermelon is cut in a perfect triangle, I see a little bit of green skin and a white rind. The reddish pink part is bitten. I am interested in knowing what the story is behind the picture and why the photographer chose to take a picture of eating a piece of food rather than a non-eaten piece of food.
