assignment 1 (9/11)

This pictures composure is textbook.  The black and white effect brings out detail in the photo as well as giving it a somewhat erie look.  The vignette effect helps makes the emphasis of the photo on the statue.  Also, the framing of the subject by using the lines of the roof helps direct the eye towards the subject.
     This photo really works for me for several reasons other than the composition.  The black and white affect is an immediate turn on for me because i am really into film photography and i always shoot in black white film.  Other than the black and white affect i like the statue that the photographer took the picture of.  The style of the old greek/roman god statues has always been eye catching to me.  Overall this photo works compositionally and the subject draws my attention.
