Great Black and White Photographers Part 2

Harry Morey Callahan was born on October 22, 1912 and died March 15, 1999. Born in Detroit, Michigan, he worked at Chrysler when he was young then left the company to study engineering at Michigan State University . However he eventually dropped out, returned to Chrysler and joined its camera club. In 1946 he was invited to teach photography at the Institute of Design in Chicago by László Moholy-Nagy. He moved to Rhode Island in 1961 to direct a photography program at the Rhode Island School of Design, teaching there until he retired in 1977. 

Photo Manipulation

I think this article is important because many photographers use photoshop for the good and bad. But many people use it for the bad. There are many people that were fired for using photoshop for manipulating certain people/objects. I think this type of photo editing is bad because a lot of people don't know the consequences for what they're photoshopping.

I chose this picture as the most unethical because Newsweek took the original photo, but then Time darkened the photo to make OJ Simpson look dark and evil.

I chose this picture as the most ethical because National Geographic just altered the pyramids to fit the cover. They did not offend anybody and it isn't wrong they just wanted the photo to fit.

40 Greatest Photos Ever

 I picked this photo because it is very deep. I don't know how it feels to have your house blown away by a tornado but I can see how it would hurt very bad. The photographer took this photo with the people in the middle and all the damage around them to have the viewer see every detail. I think it made Top 40 because it is recent events. Jeff Roberts 

 I picked this photo because there is a lot of meaning behind it. The man is mourning his son's death after seeing his name on the 9/11 "death list". I think the photographer was in the right place at the right time, he took the picture this way to show that it is sad. Justin Lane-Pool

I chose this picture because it shows a lot of emotion. The man is crying because Nazi's are occupying Paris during World War II. The photographer took the picture this way to show that everybody even men cried and were very emotional during this time period. Via

I like his Red Metal Happy photos because he took his time and included pictures we were supposed to take

I like his shoes because they are red and they are vans.

He needs to add more photos

National Geographic Contest

This is my favorite photo because it is very high resolution so you can see the shark very well. I also like it because you must be very brave to do what the scuba divers are doing. I would also like to do this some part of my life.
