This is an image of the motorcycle race at Daytona Beach in the 1940s. It was taken by Joseph Scherschel and I think that it is a good example of photojournalism and contrast because it documents an event. The two men on motorcycles stand out against the lighter background because they are darker and clearer than the people in the back. This image gives the viewer a good understanding of what happened during the event. In the background, the viewer can see the beach and this reveals the location. He or she can also see the people watching the race. Finally, the viewer can see that 138 is ahead of 161 at this moment in time.
