Vee Speers-analysing images


This is taken from Vee Speers' 'Thirteen'. For me the message of this image seems to reflect a dark and ominious mood, and forces me as a viewer to be curious as to what the image entails. The two crows represent doom or death and are used well in the photograph to portray this meaning. On the other hand, the white colour scheme in the image symbolizes cleanliness and perfection. Both the black and white together seem to come across as dull and simple, although the image is detailed in it's own way. The girl is also a pale shade so blends in well, with slight contrast too. The lighting is soft and, although the background is plain and white, the overall tone of the image is darkly lit. This gives the impression of something mysterious in the photograph. The image is taken from eye level which does not suggest that the subjects in the image are of more or less importance from a viewpoint.
