The Issues of John Szarkowski: Vantage Point

For Monday April 22nd please print 2 prints of Time and 4 prints exploring Vantage Point. Review Szarkowski's chapter on Vantage Point and images below.

"To see the subject clearly - often to see it at all - he had to abandon a normal vantage point, and shoot his picture from above, or below, or from too close, or too far away, or from the back side, inverting the order of things' importance, or with the nominal subject of his picture half hidden." - John Szarkowski
