In this lecture we looked at the importance of photography and how it can be used in most situations. The presentation showed how there are many issues to do with photography that can show the fine lines between how risky subjects are. We have looked at different styles of photography and how it has changed over the years. The task set was to read the press release on Blackboard and to look at the interview with Sally Mann. The interview was good because it showed Sally's personal views on photography and why she is so interested in doing this as an occupation. She doesn't seem scared what people will think of her work as she has found it interesting enough to turn it in to art work and she isn't copying any one else's work or styles. With regards to the pictures of her children, she claims, "I am just a mother taking pictures of my children doing things that children do." the response to the press release is in the pictures above.
