Research: Black Male Glamour, as Style and Substance NY Times Photo Essay




These photos appeal to me due to the emotive qualities of each person. I find it relatable to the previous photos I have posted of Isis because of this fact and that it is captured the essence of a person in the moment. The photos show a deep understanding to representation of a black male, just as I want to capture the life of my daughter Isis.

Research: At Open-Mike Night, Anything Goes NY Times Photo Essay.




I like these images because of the way the photographer captured the essence of each performer, gives them personality and character. Also the colours and boldness of light present.
