This photo is a "Wide angle shot" and it is so impactful to me because the wide angle shows us how far police are willing to go in order to stop the protests and how persistent the people are to protest and show what they believe. This was known as the (Umbrella protest). There have been constant protests in Hong and slowly it has started elevating. Even recently, a journalist has been blinded in the eye with a rubber bullet as well as a young women in hong kong. This is so impactful to me because it captures the full scenery of the current situation in Hong Kong and shows how far police and people are willing to go in order to get their way. There was once a saying that said "Wherever there is a will there is a way," and this photo is amazing because it captures two different sides of the protests, civilians on the left, protestors and police on the right, and police infront and the people in the back. (Photo by Wally Satana) I think this photo is so impactful because it shows the seriousness of the protest and how dire the situation is. Everyone is preparing to wear almost, toxic suits in order to survive the tear gas being thrown by the police. We can see everyone with blank emotion and the photographer did a great job of having good lighting to show the grave situation and the emotions on the people faces. Also the photographer did a great job incorporating negative space in his photos. (Close Up, and this photo was taken by Chris Mcgraph) I think this photo is impactful because it shows how foreigners are effected by the protest in Hong Kong. This is a great example of how tourism is being ruined because of the police brutality and the protest. As for the picture, the photographer used rule of thirds for the guy taking a picture with his phone and did a great job making each person stand out in the picture.
