Helnwein pt 2
My original suspicions were proven true, as the image was completely raw and not photoshopped. The image, as we know it now, is a close up shot of a little girl's face. She has a blank look on her face, signifying no discernible emotion and giving a atmosphere of innocence to her. I feel that there is no real hidden meaning behind the photo by itself, as knowing Helnwein's work, he tends to do a lot of work with people and faces. What's extremely interesting is that the image is of a massive scale but is in a location which is essentially hidden away in an industrial back alley. I think that this makes the name, "The Last Girl" very appropriate, because you would expect the last of something to be hard to find or hidden. I feel this really adds to the presentation of the piece, as it would not feel as special if it weren't shown in this way. I think its intended to be a scavenger hunt in this way, for those who are out wandering or are "lost" in e...
I liked the composition of the photo and how you could clearly see what the subject was. The background you chose is very neat with its almost reflective quality, throwing the subjects shadow back at the viewer. Looking deeper at the background, you can also see that it is not just one blue color, but multiple. That on its own adds an extra artistic quality to the image. Something you could add is maybe mess with the Levels a bit to add some drama with the shadows/highlights. Another thing that I would recommend to made your photo more interesting, would be instead of having an all blue outfit on the subject, have them wear an all white outfit to contrast with the background and therefore, making it stand out more. All in all, I think the photo you have is very well done.
