Photo literacy is the language of photographic images. Photographs communicate their meanings in particular ways. Let's have a look at some famous photographs to see how this works.
Each of the following images is presented without the photographer's name or the title of the image. Underneath each photograph is a list of questions. Use them to help you analyse the image. Feel free to draw on printed versions of the photographs and scribble a few notes. Resist the temptation to 'find out more' about the images until you've really had time to look and think. Photography is all about learning to look. |
