Blog promps #20

1. Describe some common aesthetic aspects of "news"-related photographs.
    News related photos are usually about recording a moment. They are very realistic. There's no posing, or special setting of lighting. The beauty of news photographs is the authenticity. Usually news photos are not heavily digitally altered, which keeps the origin of the history moment.

2. Describe some common aesthetic aspects of "snapshots".
I love snapshots. They always captures the unexpected, the surprising, and the excitement. The aesthetic aspect is about the freedom and the natural emotion conveyed by the shots.

3. Describe some common aesthetic aspects of advertisement photographs/fashion photographs.
They are super eye catching and perfectly beautiful. They are informative and aiming at the right target audiences. Those pictures don't tell stories, but they promote themselves. This aggressiveness sometimes make advertisement photographs beautiful, and also there are other sorts of commercial photos which are very subtle but thoughtful.

4. Describe some common aesthetic aspects of year book photos and/or senior pictures.
I feel the photos in a year book(or senior pictures) are showing the best of a person in his/her teenage year. The memory kept in those photographs are precious.
