Zoe, I really love how you talked about the Picture For Women piece. This photo features a posing women and a photographer taking her photo, and I really like how you analyze not just what is clearly happening in the photograph, but what is featured in the background such as the chairs. I also really appreciate how you included background for every photo, especially the inspiration behind each photo. This really helped me gain perspective, and I also appreciate how you mentioned the following photo, and how it was staged. This explanatory style of photography allows for viewers to see a story, or gain an understanding of a topic that they might not be familiar with. The work of Jeff Wall allows for viewers like me to really think about what I am looking at, and I love the way Wall makes me challenge my viewpoint and look for alternative meaning in his photos.
