The Picture above shows some pigeons on a telephone line. i am going to use the healing tool on photo shop to edit this picture.


Here is the edited image as you can see the bird that is still in flight and about to land on the wire has been removed by useing the healing tool. aand i also added more birds by copying some of them that are siting on the bottom wire.














Here is a brick wall with lots of roting bricks  and cracks. Iagain will use the healing tool to fix that.



And below the brick wall looks brand new with no cracks and roting bricks. Again I Used the healing tools but this time i used the Patch tool and copied other bricks on the wool and placed them over the cracks.

During the Start of the Great Depression Evans Had traveled across the country taking pictures of people in the US coping with the Great American Depression the Pictures he had took were spreed across the USA showing everyone the effects of other people in there daily life's and the poverty they were living with

Walker Evans took photos of American people who were out of work During the Great Depression in the 1920s-1940s . Many of his photos focused on family's who were poor and dress in drags and dirty clothing which always appeared to be dirty, ripped, or just scraps of what a dress used to be. The message Walker used in these photos were sad but informal to the viewer back then if someone looked at the photo they may feel better for themselves; that they aren't suffering as bad as the people in the photo and may also feel sorry for them. And for the people who are like the people in the photo below can resemble to them and they would know that they are not the only ones having a hard time and suffering. The Picture below is a very famous picture by Walker evens taken during the Great depression. it shows a family in a small room most likely the room they all share and sleep in the same bed or probably the floor.

If you look at the work of Henri Cartier-Bresson, he applied geometry to his images poetically. If you look at the composition of his images he integrated vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines shadows, triangles  to his advantage. He also paid attention to the frames he used to get the best possible image. When Henri Cartier-Bresson would talk about “The Decisive Moment” he said sometimes "it would be spontaneous but others times he had to be patient and wait for it." 

Some of the images that Cartier-bresson took are some of the most famous images ever taken on the planet. Below are two examples of some every famous freehand photography taken by him. and are very well known in the world of photography and arts. The first one below shows what Cartier-Bronson meant by "the Decisive Moment" And moment he focuses the camera and times the man on the bike coming around the corner and the use of when he presses the shutter to take the picture he gets a perfect picture at the right moment when his mind had decided to press down on the button "SNAP". Cartier-Bresson was at the top of some public stairs. sitting and waiting for the perfect picture. when he heard a bike coming round the corner he got ready and waited for "The Decisive moment"

The one Below it Is more famous and consided the best Photo ever taken in the 20th cenetury. Cartier-Bresson was walking down a road when he peaked through a hole in a fence and saw a man walking towards a puddle. He got his camera out and poked it through the fence, Once again he waited for "The decisive moment.

The image itself tells so many different things. The background of the factory the clothes the man wears Signing him as poor (not rich). Man conquering nature. The reflection in the picture also amazed alto of people as it is so clear. Some people thought he was walking on water until they saw the reflection.
