Henri Cartier-Bresson(http://erickimphotography.com)
FORM:
The dominant element of this photo will be the structure. In this photograph, most of the line is form in thick structure, for the use of space, the main focus image, which is the black shadow man is place on the right of the photo. For my own opinion, i think this photograph have a very good use of spacem the shadow of the man under the water really show of the interesting part of the photo. If this photograph is paint in colour, i think it would mainly be some dark colour in order to match the sad mood of the photo.
Context:
when Henri Cartier-Bresson go out and shoot, he will only keep his images if every element of his image (people, background, framing, and composition) were perfect. When you are out shooting and you see fascinating scenes, wait for the right person to walk by to complete your image. Although you don’t want to camp out for hours on end to wait for the right moment to occur, practice a bit of patience. You don’t always need to go out and hunt for photo-opportunities. Allow them to come to you.
Content:
The name of this photograph is called " The Decisive Moment", which the photographer wait so long to take this image, this photograph shoe a man passing by the water, and show his own shadow underneath the water, which want to bring out a quite sad mood.
Mood:
The feeling this photograph give me is quite sad, because all the image is dark colour and we cant really clearly see the face of that person, so this also give me some mystery mood.

Same as the last photo, value is the dominant element of the photograph. The photograph is main focus on the poor children, and for the srtucture of the space, there have 4 poor children on the left and on main focus on the middle. If this photogarph have to paint in colur, it should be some drak colour, becasue this can bring out how sad it is for the poor children who live in poor countries.
Context:
The name of the photogaraph is "Biafra", it is taken in 1969. Here is a short discription of the photograph:
When the Igbos of eastern Nigeria declared themselves independent in 1967, Nigeria blockaded their fledgling country-Biafra. In three years of war, more than one million people died, mainly of hunger. In famine, children who lack protein often get the disease kwashiorkor, which causes their muscles to waste away and their bellies to protrude. War photographer Don McCullin drew attention to the tragedy. "I was devastated by the sight of 900 children living in one camp in utter squalor at the point of death," he said. "I lost all interest in photographing soldiers in action." The world community intervened to help Biafra, and learned key lessons about dealing with massive hunger exacerbated by war-a problem that still defies simple solutions.
Content:
This photogarph is showing how poor the children were, this is a portrait photograph, the title of the photograph is " Biafra" , by looking at this title, we know that it must be a sad photograph.
Mood:
By the first sight of looking at this photograph, i feel very sad, i look at the children, how poor are they. It make me feel this way is because the photograph capture the most natural way of those poor children, and this can make the poor atmosphere more stronger in order to let poeple get the message of this photograph.
