I like this image because of the vantage point, and the context that the hands bring into the image. Without the hands and arms, the image would fall flat. Camp also uses the lower right hand corner of the image to capture the viewer’s eye as we mentioned in class. There is a certain amount of framing that the hands do, separating part of the foil and other paper. I like the crinkles that allow for darkness and light in the background. I also like that the background is in focus and the hands are not. This is difficult to do successfully in an image. This blurriness also lets the image also fall into the category of time, which I believe adds to the image, and creates a sense of urgency and desperation. I also like that there is more crinkle in the foil at the top center, bottom center, and side centers, providing a certain level of framing for the white sheet. I also like that the sheet is not completely symmetrical. It adds more dimension to the image and the hands do this as well.
