This
image immediately stands out for its contrast. It was taking in Times Square by
Weegee in 1945. The boy dressed in a sailor uniform and the magazine appears to
pop out from the image. The background is slightly darker and less in focus
making the boy seem 3 dimensional.
This
image stands out for one other reason. The photographer chose the perfect frame
and perspective so the viewer can read the title of the newspaper. This gives
the reader a better idea of the context and time period. Overall, I think that
this image represents great contrast, frame, and perspective.
