THIRD- post by NICOLE PRISCO:


The presentation on fashion in West Africa brought up many different topics to talk about.  I found the discussion on portraits to be very interesting and somewhat debatable.  The whole idea of whether something is a "portrait" or "not a portrait" is completely opinionated.  In magazines a portrait can be of a person in their everyday life walking down the street.  When that same person is standing near a popular business or store the intentions of the image change.  Overall, the way that an image is taken can influence the way that the audience views and interprets the image.
