Quotes About Photography
Form 10
Comment
on the quote you like most.
When you photograph people in
color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in Black
and white, you photograph their souls!
The camera is an instrument
that teaches people how to see without a camera.
It is a cruel, ironical art,
photography. The dragging of captured moments into the future; moments that
should have been allowed to be evaporate into the past; should exist only in
memories, glimpsed through the fog of events that came after. Photographs force
us to see people before their future weighed them down....
The Earth is Art, The Photographer
is only a Witness.
You can look at a picture for
a week and never think of it again. You can also look at a picture for a second
and think of it all your life.
Joan Miró

Comparing and Contrasting Two Photographs
Form 10
Learn how to compare and contrast two different
pictures that are related to the same topic:
1. Start by giving a brief description of the pictures
The two photographs show people doing sport/were taken
in a restaurant.
The people in these pictures are studying in different
situations.
2. Make factual statements about the photos, including
the most obvious similarities and differences.
In the first photograph/In photograph A there is/there
are…
The second picture shows…
These photographs are very similar because they both
show people reading but in very different situations. In the first picture
there are two women reading on a crowded train, but the man in the second
picture is reading on a deserted beach.
3. Use contrast linking words and phrases
On the one hand in this photo… on the other hand in
the second photo…
Photo 1 shows a lion in a cage whereas photo 2 shows a
group of lions in the jungle.
The woman in picture A is enjoying herself but the
woman in picture B looks very unhappy.
4. Use comparatives and superlatives, if possible
The room in the first photo is bigger and more spacious.
The people that are sitting on the bench are the most
overweight.
5. Make comments which involve opinion and speculation
In my opinion, the lion in the photo 1 looks a bit
depressed.
The lion in this photo is probably in a zoo or in a
circus.
It looks like a London underground, but I’m not sure.
The man could be somewhere like Jamaica.
