FORMAL CRITIQUE


As he is surrounded by the fiery flames, a middle aged man walks towards the flames that take me right to him. He embodies a suit with tear drops of water wanting to terminate the line of flames that strikes through him. The light of the grayish-white smoke in the skies creates the loneliness feeling that the man endures as he approaches his challenges of putting out this vast fire with the tiny tear drop-like baggies that he has wrapped around his long black tuxedo suit. I like how the artist uses the light grays in the sky and the very dark grays towards the bottom of the photo. It starts light at the top and gets darker as it gets to the bottom. This is why I think this is a really good photo.
