Concert on the Kemah Boardwalk #2


Again, I must show my ignorance.  I had a different image of what the paparazzi looked like.
Even though the band “took me back”, I think I was more surprised by what the audience looked like.  It was a very diverse-looking group—everything from senior citizens to preteens.  Most seemed to be listening to and enjoying the music.
I think this photo only works in context.  Without knowing who was performing on stage, you cannot really understand significance of the image.  I tried to get one of her and the band, but the angles were all wrong.  To me this photo only works when shown as part of the story, i.e., concert on the Kemah Boardwalk #2.
If you can only "get" this image when shown in context, why did I include it on my blog?  Good question.  I do not really have an answer.
Enjoy.

  2. I want to like this one however it just does not do anything for me. I have seen many photos of a person taking a pix of someone else. This is just another one like those.

  3. I agree with the professor. It seems like a photo I have seen a million times.
