The+Human+Condition

To me, I think that the human condition is the way humans interact and view each other. But this changes as time goes on, society is what changes. When that changes that makes you view things and other people. I think that it evolves over time because society is always changing.

Jeffrey Stockbridge is a photographer who is from Philadelphia. He shoots pictures in the streets of the "Slums" He goes walking down the avenue, talking to people and asking them about the avenue. Thats how he got a sense of the environment and community around these run down streets. I really like his pictures because they give you a good sense of how bad these places can be. In some of the pictures you can really see how these people are feeling. These are some of my favorite pictures by



Peter Turnley- I really enjoyed looking at Peter's pictures because it was like looking at a time line. He spent 40 years going all over the world photographing the human condition. His photographs are really awesome. i like the way he uses his light source in some of them. I also like the depth some of his pictures have. If you really look at these pictures they really make you think about how so many other peoples lives are much different then ours today.

Dorothea Lange: When I look at her pictures i can see the true emotions of the people. it is amazing the way she can capture someone's facial expression and to be able to get such a strong feeling or vibe from it. I really like that all of her pictures are black and white i think that it makes them more serious to look at.
