I found this photograph in a book called Ray K. Metzker City Stills. His book can be found in the DCAD library.
What draws me into this photograph is the design aspect of it. i love the reocccuring shapes throughout the photograph. it keeps my eye moving throughout the photograph. It also plays a big part in time, and it being such a decisive moment. i love how the child in white fits perfectly in the black square object. it frames her, making her stand out more than the child in black. I really enjoy Metzker's work, because he tried different things, such as expirmenting with mulitple exposures, abstraction, and street photography. He knew Harry Callahan, and you can see in some of Metzker's work how Callahan affected and inspired him as a photographer. Metzker's work relates to mine, because i love to expirement with my work, and try new things.
