Looking at Robert Capa’s picture “Death of a Loyalist Soldier,” it is easy to make many assumptions. It is understandable why people think that the photo is fake, but I disagree. After reading the passage and discussing it in class, I thought about the reasons why it is not staged. Firstly, the man in the photograph’s face shows real shock and pain. No matter how many time a shot is taken, there cant be a moment that can capture true pain, which is all I see in this image. Also, Capa was known for getting into dangerous situation to take these photographs, so why lie and set this one up? In this case, I don’t believe authenticity matters because it still portrayed what soldiers were going through during these wars. If it was staged or not, it still had great impact on all who saw it.

Seeing how an app that was made for phone crazy adolescents can make such an impact on food photography is amazing. Food Photography is both an art and market form. Food Photography as an art is done for creative expression, just like all other types of art. On the other hand, food photography for marketing is in hopes of promoting an item or the location the item is sold. When one sees food being promoted, it is unlike the food one see in person. It is made to have people be more impulsive into buying it or tasting it. This is why it is airbrushed or edited to make the colors pop. It is all about manipulating the viewer. Food photography as an art form is more raw and pure. The food in its natural form is what should attract people. This is why food photography for marketing has a bigger impact on people. It is advertised and printed in places that can’t possibly be missed. Meanwhile, food photography as an art has to be sought out. Personally, I prefer it as an art form. I prefer things in their simplest forms.

There are many differences from food photography for marketing and food photography for art. Food photography of art is more of a calm photo as the food is introduced with other items in the art. The art work is usually not focused on the food itself it’s just something that enhances the photo. Now with food photography in a marketing stand point the whole photo is focused on the food and barley anything else as your trying to sell the idea of the food you are presenting. Both are works of art I personally like the art version a little more as it includes  other props and items most of the time.

The trend for photographing food became very popular . There are many reasons why people want to post their pictures on the internet. Instagram is the fastest growing social networking platform on the web, happens to be particularly successful among foodies.In those days, Instagram makes a food photographer out of everyone. The photographer can make even the most simple foods look worthy.”We eat with our eyes”.
I think photographing food can be art. Photographing food is not an art of simple and worth to her professionally prepared.There certainly is an art to food presentation. Photographers spend much time carefully calculating precisely how their food will be arranged on a plate making sure it looks oh-so-perfect.

Instagram is the perfect place for businesses of all sizes to advertiseThere are many strategies that these Instagrammers follow to be successful.There is a lot fo people who have built impressive careers starting from an influential Instagram account surely doesn’t end here. I believe it is good business. Of course, not everyone achieves success so quickly.
