PHO208 Muhammed Muheisen

In this photograph by Muhammed Muheisen I love how the colors are throughout from the small dot of red by the models foot. The dots carry my eye to the top left corner. I'm just wondering if that is a real model or a mannequin because, the title is a man cleaning a billboard? Is the man stagged cleaning the billboard because, he also happens to be wearing red and black? I love the car in this too.

PHO208 Adreas Gursky

I really like this photograph because it is at the beach. I am from florida so I grew up around the water my whole life until I moved to TX. Although, I have never seen a beach with as many patrons or umbrellas as this.  It seems like the umbrellas continue on for miles. I wonder if the umbrellas are staged or if they are really there all of the time and if so I want to go to this beach. I think that Andreas Gursky challenges me to look for beauty in everyday things that I see and turn them into art.
