Gordon Sparks (fav. picture)

My favorite photo by Gordon Sparks will have to be:
Ingrid Bergman at Stromboli taken in 1949
the reason i like this photograph is because it tells a story
the way she looks back at them like she was alone
shes not really filling up the frame but the backround on
it gives a good effect. The lighting is ok shes kinda in the shade and
the other ladies are in the dark like if she was hidding. I really
liked this picture ALOT.

FAVORITE::
#2 Vanity Fair
Vanity Fair’s provocative cover shot of the naked and hugely pregnant Demi Moore (also shot by Annie Leibovitz) projected the actress to even greater heights after the huge success of the movie Ghost the previous year. The cover helped firmly establish Moore as a member of Hollywood’s A-List at the time.

My critique:
My opinion on this magazine cover is that it expresses alot of things like not only because Demi is from the movie Ghost. Her Composition on the cover is serious and hopeful the lighting is really good because its comin from where she is lookin at like theres something there! As it goes down the lighting fades away and it gives the picture a good look! The expression on her face and the way she's holding her stomach catches your eye.
