My photos are influenced by Eliot Porters photography because in his photos he shows sharp images that are very focussed on the main object infront of him. He uses lots of landscap photography, lots of his photos portray plenty of color and centered targets of spectacular views.

Graduation Cap

This gradation cap reminds me of Williams Eggleston's photography because the tassel on the cap is twisted which represents confusion, nothing is around it and it just has a plain and simple background so i consider it as being isolated and alone on my wall which the idea William Eggleston gives off with his book. Also just like the hanging jacket on the very last page reminds me of this photo. It represents me because its a big part of my life right now.

Even those photos seem uninteresting or exotic than those portraits of our family is is Eggleston's interests. Pictures based compostionally on the Confederate Flag. Egglestons photos are not focused on answering a large question but rather simply describing life. The pictures are not focused on answering a large question but rather simply describing life. The pictures in this book are meant to be exactly what they look like and what they mean.
