Looking at and Seeing- Dorothea lange

In this photo I see children sharing books, reading, and some look happy. The photographer wanted to capture this moment because it looks like all of the children are getting along and all of them are happy. The emphasis in this photo is the three girls. The black and white does impact the picture because I feel like we aren't getting the full picture and I feel like something is missing in it. If it was in color I feel like there would be more to the picture and it wouldn't be that boring. The mood in this picture is kind of happy and sad, because some of the children are happy and the two on the left look a little depressed. This photo reveals happy or sad you have to do what you have to do. This picture holds my attention because it looks like there's a lot of different emotions and feelings. I chose this photo because it's the first one that grabbed my attention.
