"More photography has been created for gallery walls in the last decade than in any other period in the mediums history." I apply this quote because though it is most likely true I find it kind of redundant. Mostly because in terms of how long this technology has been around/and or developing it would make sense that their hasn't been a serious jump in photography in more modern times. More people have access to camera's now then 30 years ago. Sorry this was just a small rant and this will not count for my five to six sentence response on the chapter. (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)
On pages 86 and 87 their are two photos. on 87 I'm referring to the one titled Oil Fields. These photos really remind me of a model train set or something. The landscape that surrounds them. Especially Oil Fields. The photo looks too clean and sharp in some portions to actually be a landscape. Okay so I'm still a little lost after this reading in determining what a Dead pan photographer is. I see a lot of landscapes and alteration of the colors within the landscape but the reading isn't sticking. Like I read it and then a couple seconds later I lose it. Can we touch base on this in class?
