Photograph the resembles the F64s


This photograph reminds me a lot of one of the pictures the F64 photographers took in the early 1900(except in color). The sharp focus of this photograph displays every detail, which is what the F64 photographers started doing after the pictorialism movement. They took sharper focused photographs because they wanted to start showing modern day life. Before, during the pictorialism movement, photofraphers wanted to take photograph the resembled other forms of art.
Also the way this picture is framed reminds me a lot of photographs the F64 photographers took. You see so much in this picture; the water, people, the mountains with trees, the mountains with snow, the sky, and the coulds.
The beauty of this picture is much like ones i've seen before in the 1900 from the F64 photographers.

  2. Wow! What a beautiful image. I love the contrast between the darker tones of the foreground against the lighter tones of the mountains. The small boat on the water gives a sense of the massive scale of the mountains. The white clouds give the image a somewhat mystical appearance.

  3. This image does reflect the f64 aesthetic. I agree with much of what you wrote about their work but the f64 group was not exactly interested in modern life. They usually photographed landscapes or closeups from nature which often had a timeless quality.
