The reason that i chose these self portraits are because I have something in common with all of these self portraits which is why i chose them. here is what i have in common with them; Alfred Stieglitzv the man with with a stash he looks funny with the mustache and i just find it funny and how he played with the lighting to make the photograph look like it is old. I can't really tell what type of lighting this portrait has but it might be candle light and then the self portrait is in black and white because it is a older photograph. For the compositional techniques Stieglitzv filled the frame and made himself the focal point of the self portrait. The name of this portrait is Classy ’stache!. http://www.blueskyclassroom.net

Bill Brandt which is in the second self portrait with the landscape background, he used the natural lighting from the sun to light up the photograph. the compositional techniques that Brandt used was filling the frame because he took from what looks like a photograph of him standing by a rock wall and then in the background it goes for as long as the eye can see in this photograph. this portrait also has has leading lines on the rock wall and all the rubble as far as the eye can see in this photo adds depth to it. and Im assuming that he took this self portrait. http://www.blueskyclassroom.net

Daido Moriyama is the photographer of this Self portrait of his shadow and 2 Huskeys this self portrait is using natural lighting from the sun and Moriyama used Leading lines because of the shadow it leads you in multiple directions and then filling the frame which really makes the shadow and the dogs pop making them the focal point of this portrait. This portrait was taken in 1997 http://www.vintag.es
