Reaction #2

Emmet Gowin is an photoagrapher that did not try for the picture to happen. He likes the family aspect of pictures how you can see the happiness and joy. I like the way he talks about the people in the picture are not the only ones in the picture the photoagrapher is a part and the people around are to. He also says that those pictures dont make very much sense until you look back at them later and remember the feelings that were felt at that time. The way the lens adds character to the picture and to change the way you view reality. I think the way he describes the way how you cant imagine the picture before you take it. You will not really know what it looks like. The way the picture really does not mean that much at the moment and as you look at the picture later down that road it hits you what it means to you. This picture just tells it all the kids realxing from a long day. The older ones watching the young ones it reminds me of the way it is today. The way they are enjoying the summer weather.

  1. I agree, Emmet "let" the scene take shape within just an ordinary family day.
