John Hedgecoe

Factual: This photograph was taken by John Hedgecoe who was an award-winning British photographer and author of over 30 books on photography. He was born 24 March 1932 and passed away on the 3rd June 2010. 

Context: I think this photograph shows a lot of emotion because the woman looks depressed and lonely.

Technical: in my opinion this photograph was taken in a studio set up to look like its in a 'war' setting.

Aesthetic: what I like about this photo is that the setting looks intense and real and you can almost feel as lonely as the woman

  1. the content is fantastic and a good start! what i suggest is that you double check what 'facts, Context,Technical and Aesthetics' mean.

    What you have written is really insightful and suggests what is happening in the photo, but can you expand on 'how' it is composed?


    This is where research comes in.

    also imagine that you are describing the image to a child or someone who is blind.

    Make good use of the glossary i gave you on 'composition'

    All the resources are there, this project is about how you find and select them

    well done for kepping the pace!
