Point of view


Interpretation: Weston's photo is one of his many images that caught my eye. This particular image grabbed my attention though because it is not one of the typically seen images of dancers. It is showing you a different point of view. It is more geared toward showing the affects of dancing or even the opposite, the process of preparing for dance. The bare feet are what really makes me feel this way as well as the way each is holding on to the lace of the pointe shoe and their ankles. Being a dancer it was very easy to see this image and relate to it immediately and have a feel as to the emotions of the dancers.
