Photojournalism Critique #2

PHOTJOURNALISM CRITIQUE #2

For this critique I chose to look at pictures showing different cultures.

I found a picture of a young chinese women who was doing Dong Weaving.

The picture is very bright, her face is hidden slightly by her hair. Other then that

I really like the picture because it shows what she is doing and draws attention due to colors.

The second photo that I really liked was picture of an Ireland Parade. It showed that obviously

it was a parade of some kind, and you can tell where they are because they have kilts and bagpipes.

It's a candid photo, which i like. It focuses mainly on the guy in front but your eyes get draw down the line of men.

I found a photo named "pursuit of happiness" on Flickr.com that really attracted my attention.

The photo shows a little girl who is completely content with chasing bubbles.

This picture draws my attention because the green is so vivid, and the little girl is off-centered. 

The bubbles are very clear and stand out. 
The scene around the girl gives off the ambiance of a Utopia. 

Jonspotphotography.com is the original location of this picture,
he uses Flickr to share his photographs.

I am taking Photojournalism in order to better my understanding of taking photographs of people. I am planning on graduating with a minor in photography and hopefully one day owning my own photography studio specializing in weddings, parties, children, animals and sports.
