Hats in the Garment District, New York, 1930.
Margaret Bourke-White utilizes the birds eye view technique very effectively here. The high contrast, the bright whites of the hats and the overall grey tone of the photo dehumanize those in the photo, the people are reduce to simple "hats" or ants rather than humans. By doing so she creates an interesting photo and comments on society and humanity. |
