1. I picked this image because it is very risky. The whole city in the background caught my eye.
2. Eleven men casually eat and smoke as if they weren't sitting on beam. They are 840 ft. above ground. The picture was taken on the 69th floor of the flagship RCA Building.d
3. The people sitting on the bar, and the photographer remain a mystery. There were three photographers present, Charles C. Ebbets, Thomas Kelley and William Leftwich, but no one knows who took it. Lunch atop a sky scraper came to symbolizes Americans resilience and ambition at the time.

5. Charles Ebbets was born in August 18, 1905 in Gadsden, Alabama and died July 14, 1978. He bought his first camera at age eight by charging it to his mother's account at a local drugstore. I could not find what school he went to.


1. I picked this image because of how the ladies were dressed. Their fur coats caught my eye. 
2. In the pictures I see to very rich women. They are doused in expensive furs. Their makeup is done very well and precise. 
3. Weegee grew up quite poor and thought that life wasn't fair. Capturing this photo he saw the rich american girls, next to a not-so rich boy. He "captured the stark juxtaposition of fabulous wealth and dire poverty."

1. I picked this image because Ghandi looks so peacful. The way he was sitting caught my eye. 
2. In this picture I see an old man, sitting on the floor with his legs crossed. I also see some wood star spinning near the camera.
3.  Gandhi encouraged his countrymen to make their own homespun cloth instead of buying British goods. This photo soon became a famous image, the civil-­disobedience crusader with his influential symbol, and "helped solidify the perception of Gandhi outside the subcontinent as a saintly man of peace."

1. I picked this photo because it made me sad. The skinny boy caught my eye.
2. In this picture I see a starving boy. He is albino. And he is holding some white can, I can not identify. 
3. McCullin wrote. “Dying of starvation, he was still among his peers an object of ostracism, ridicule and insult.” The photographer himself can not stand his own photo. He says it makes him sad, and that he hopes from this people will help others in need.
