Moments

I must admit that I didn't invest as much time as I'd wished but here are the results. Not strong shots but I think at least there were some moments captured.




Last weekend I went to the Juste Pour Rire museum to see the World Press Photo expo and I found that there was another exposition being shown at the same time who caught my attention named "Anthropography". The exposition deals with delicate themes and the images are often shocking and very graphic. In the photo a mother tries to explain the photos to her young daughter who maybe was exposed to this kind of images for the first time in her life. Due to low light conditions the image is a little blur and with some noise.



The lack of time forced me to follow the suggestion of taking pictures of people we know. My friend and his children were watching TV but they were really tired, so after some minutes it was easy to catch them in this position.



I photographed this old couple on a Saturday morning on Parc avenue. I like their expressions, tough I find the background too distracting.

  1. I disagree, I think these shots are STRONG! I'm loving them and I like what you did with each one of them. On the contrary, my moment shots are not so nice, haha.

    I love the colors in the first two and I think it was a good idea to make the last photo in black & white. Nice angles as well!

  2. I like the third photo very much. You captured a really genuine moment, especially on the woman's face as she cuddles her poodle(?) with the wind in her hair.

  3. Nice shots! Considering the story behind it, I find the first picture very strong! At first, just by looking at it on the blog page, I was attracted by the colours, but by making it larger, I really was able to see the emotion or attention of the mother towards her daughter.
