Elliott Erwitt

























Elliott Erwitt is an advertising and documentary photographer known for his black and white candid shots of ironic and absurd situations within everyday settings. I was inspired the way he framed the subject matter. By mainly focusing on the mirror and defocusing on the background, he made a good decision to give a massage to the audience by using the water in the background. Water always represents pure, relaxation, life. Overall, the picture seems much more romantic. Based on my understanding, the massage of the picture is "pure love".
