Ezra Stroller: A Moment To Study

In “Ways of Seeing”, John Berger, an English art critic, argues that images are important for the present-day by saying, “No other kind of relic or text from the past can offer such direct testimony about the world which surrounded other people at other times. In this respect images are more precise and richer literature” (10). John Berger allowed others to see the true meaning behind certain art pieces in “Ways of Seeing”. Images and art show what people experienced in the past allowing others to see for themselves rather than be told how an event occurred. There are two images that represent the above claim, Arnold Eagle and David Robbins’ photo of a little boy in New York City, and Dorothea Lange’s image of a migratory family from Texas; both were taken during the Great Depression.

Winogrand took photos of everything he saw; he always carried a camera or two, loaded and prepared to go. He sought after to make his photographs more interesting than no matter what he photographed. Contrasting many well-known photographers, he never knew what his photographs would be like he photographed in order to see what the things that interested him looked like as photographs. His photographs resemble snapshots; street scenes, parties, the zoo. A critical artistic difference between Winogrand's work and snapshots has been described this way, the snapshooter thought he knew what the subject was in advance, and for Winogrand, photography was the process of discovering it. If we recall tourist photographic practice, the difference becomes clear: tourists know in advance what photographs of the Kodak Hula Show will look like. In comparison, Winogrand fashioned photographs of subjects that no one had thought of photographing. Again and again his subjects were unconscious of his camera or indifferent to it. Winogrand was a foremost figure in post-war photography, yet his pictures often appear as if they are captured by chance. To him and other photographers in the 1950s, the previous pictures seemed planned, designed, visualized, understood in advance; they were little more than pictures, in actual fact less, because they claimed to be somewhat else the examination of real life. In this sense, the work of Garry Winogrand makes a motivating comparison to Ziller's

The first photograph I am going to discuss is photo of Ellery Shufelt with his children in Albany County, New York. Arthur Rothstein took this photograph in 1937, which was when the Great Depression was taking place in the United States. This photograph depicts many of these formal elements and techniques such as, framing, lighting, composition, and space to help portray the true meaning of the image. Arthur Rothstein uses the technique known as composition, which can be defined as the organization of the photograph by inserting elements in particular places and sizes. This assumption can be made because Rothstein places the Ellery Shufelt and his children in specific areas of the photograph to help capture an emotion or option about how people live and work American society at this time. Also, the framing and position of the door and chair outlines the photograph asymmetrically for the viewer. The door offsets the image by dividing the image with a vertical line. This basically crops the photograph making the viewer focus on the father and his children rather than the background itself. In addition, the level the camera intensifies the feeling and framing by making you feel eye level with the subjects. The use of framing allowed the photograph to make you focus and control how you perceive the image.

Her work is based on events happening and who and what was most popular through the 1930’s and the eventful changes happening throughout. Her work through the time of 1930’s New York documentation took the camera on a journey through the changed and events happening at this specific time, her main idea was to get across the point of why she documented New York and to show the dramatic changed that a year can make to such a big city at this time. She documented different areas of New York including the urban scene and the architecture that represented New York in such a big way. She had focused on a lot of types of photography throughout the start of her career and moved on to architecture when documenting New York as she embarked on new found interests in her career. Her main focus was to base her photography on the ‘Changing New York’ and that the time of the 1930’s had such a huge

Baby walkers are a noted subject of controversy. There are conflicting reports of it helping infants to stand and walk by themselves. Garrett, McElroy and Staines have noted that infants who used baby walkers had developmental delays in achieving locomotive milestones compared to infants who did not use baby walkers. However, Pin, Eldrige and Gaela stated there is only a short delay of achieving motor skills on healthy infants when using infant motor equipment (such as a baby walker). Nevertheless, the theoretical issue with baby walkers is that babies cannot see their own feet while walking in the baby walker, which can produce issues in attaining basic locomotor skills. It has been demonstrated that appropriate feedback with self-produced

This black and white picture was taken in 1932 in New York City, United States of America, during the construction of the RCA Building at 30 Rockefeller Center in Manhattan. Nevertheless, it was only a few years ago that Charles C. Ebbets was credited as the photographer; during many years the picture was attributed to “unknown” author. Bettman Archive currently owns the image, but it was first published in the supplement of the New York Herald Tribune. The shot was taken in order to promote the new skyscraper that was being erected. This image could evoke alternative reactions and feelings depending on the scope of the analysis, but it mainly represents community, progress and power.

These photos showed us the growing hopelessness of the workers in the east coast. The photos of the abandoned houses, dirty skin, empty streets, all gave us a feeling of sorrow in our gut. She showed us continually showed us the man without work and the woman trying her best to keep her children alive.

I have selected an artist by the name of Elliot Erwitt, since we share the same first initial. He is an American documentary and advertising photographer who is well known for his candid black and white photos. His photographs capture unique and ironic everyday settings. The picture below is of the late icon Marilyn Monroe and was taken in New York during the year 1956. Although she was a movie star here in this photo, she is simply reading a book. It shows a normal and relatable side of her, which I appreciate.

The second piece that stood out the most to me was also another photograph by Mari Ortiz called “Loving the Architecture.” Architecture, especially in the downtown area, is antique yet interesting to look at. This picture’s medium required various techniques such as color correction, sizing, cropping, viewing, and printing in a dark room. The color of this picture defines the boldness and texture of the building in a naturalistic way. Although printing digitally in a dark room prints the photograph in black and white, the way the shadows captures depth and tones is absolutely

Travelling with a baby is challenging, but what if you also have an older kid to look after? Imagine your little angels having tantrums because they are getting uncomfortable. Stress for everyone starts to build up, right?

Old black and white photos bring a kind uniqueness of perspective. Instead of seeing colors, you have to see and feel what the photographer sees and feels from taking the photo. This makes analyzing more interesting. The photo’s purpose is, no matter how tough life gets, there is always love in the world. Half way around the world or in Times Square, love is infinite. The way the photographer structured this piece is compelling, just because of the contrast between them. He photographs rapid changing events

Ezra Stoller's intro on Fallingwater states that “Fallingwater is surely the most photogenic private building built in the twentieth century {B1 pg1}. Photogenic can be defined as forming an attractive subject for photography or having features that look well in a photograph. This could be said for many buildings, but there is something specific about buildings like the Barcelona pavilion and Fallingwater that from almost every conceivable angle you get the point or the concept behind the design. Not to say that someone with talent in photography would come out with the same as the everyday tourist, but the everyday tourist could come away with a photo that had the same meaning and information. Frank Lloyd Wright's quote at the beginning of this essay says a lot about what these photographs do for people. It's not about the specific image but imagining yourself on the site or in the home. The way a building is designed is the way that a building should be photographed. Has the building been “photographed to death?” No, every new lens on the building is a new moment to be analysed and interpreted further. Fallingwater has been built up to the point of being a celebrity as much as Wright himself and will constantly inspire new architects to think outside the box and push the boundaries of style. And it's through the two-dimensional representations of the building that people can get excited about

The portrait by Hans Holbein and the sidewalk artwork created by Kurt Wenner is awesome. It's amazing to know how talented some people are. Also, it's amazing to know our eyes are able to perceive complex images.

As the leader producer and seller of baby strollers, U.S. Stroller has been known for carrying a very high-quality baby stroller. The company is known for innovation designs and its good distribution system. The President of U.S. Stroller Judy Hawkins is the sister of the director of manufacturing Clem Hawkins. Judy has suggested to Clem that a Just-in-time system is what the company needs to reduce the high inventory cost, cycle time, improve quality and eventually cost the company is carrying. Clem decided he would solicit the help of Joan Hankins who had recently graduated from UCLA with an M.B.A; she was a whiz at analyzing.

Baby Stroller Accessories – Several methods of transporting a baby have been utilized across different families and cultures for different children of different ages. Baby stroller accessories can be classified into wheeled devices such as carrycots. These are also known as the northern American English form of baby carriages. Pushchairs are also a classification of the baby strollers. Slings and backpacks forms a basis of the baby trend stroller accessories which were utilized back in the ages. In addition, infant car seats, baskets, and bicycle carriers were also used to ensure ease of child mobility. The large and heavy perambulators, which were popular during the traditional ages, were replaced by designs which were more flexible and later in the 1900s. Different Baby stroller accessories are evident in baby
