Manuel Alvarez Bravo -- Instrumental 

1931, Gelatin silver print, printed on Agfa paper

The reason i picked this picture was because it caught my eye. The strong highlights and shadows along with texture just give the picture a great feel. Along with the design aspect i just think it is a complete idea with great dynamics. Nothing feels out of place. I also can relate to the wear and tear that these tools show because I have used wrench's many times before and i think it captures the durability and strength they have.

George Tice -- Country Road

I find this photograph interesting because I have never seen one like this before. The high contrast of the road and space surrounding it leads your eye right to the car. The road almost looks like a light streak or paintbrush just swept across a black canvas. Although there is a a lot of negative space it doesn't overpower the picture and drown out the car and road. Overall  think it is a great composition and use of light.

Brett Weston -- Dunes

The reason I am attracted this photo would be the rim highlights on the dunes, they have definite shape with even just two tones, as the dunes recede into the background the less the range of tones but the still keep the same definition. The clouds are also mimicking the dunes with the same rim highlights and contrast. With the little tonal range in this print it accomplishes a lot of depth of field. Even though the background sky is almost the same as parts of the front dune there is still a distinct seperation.
