Critique
The photograph shows two white men, one older and the other older, looking down at an elderly man on the floor. It appears they are in a city street on a chilly night based on the coats.
The image, to me, exposes the cruelty some people have towards each other. It makes me feel sad because there are five people standing around while the old man is on the floor and don't stop to help him up. There are lines created by the street and the old mans cane. The old man is the main form in the image and there is texture in their coats & the floor. It also includes the dominance of men in the image, a unity of different people, and balance. There is rule of thirds, shadows and lines in the image. |
