I got inspiration from these pictures to do a landscape photo with very few or no people. I really liked Bresson’s picture because it makes me want to see what the person is running after and the architecture is amazing. The buildings frame the person really well. What I want to shoot is something like the 2nd photo or a combination of Adams’ and Doisneau’s pictures above. Adams is known primarily for his landscape photography, so I took some inspiration from his photos because they are awe inspiring. However, I also want some action. Bresson and Doisneau featured more portraits and both artists had photos featuring movement and different emotions. Doisneau took pictures mainly in France, which adds a kind of unseen layer to the pictures. The thing that really struck me about his picture was the couple being still while everyone around them is moving and seem apathetic toward them. I found that very profound and interesting. Framing, leading lines, and monochrome are definitely going to be used.
