Bert Stern - Marilyn Monroe

Stern has composed this shot so Marilyn is central in the frame, similarly to the last shot i looked at she is looking over her shoulder with her body facing the other way. The colour contrast is also similar with a white backdrop and black dress, this immediately draws you to her.

Looking mainly at posing and composition in this photograph. Composed with the model central in the frame. Having the model walking adds movement to the image as opposed to a stationary shot, hair flick works well for the shot. The fact the model is walking away from the camera looking over her shoulder adds interest in the photograph as well as a potential narrative. It makes the viewer wonder what she is looking at. The main tones of the backdrop are considerably light which makes a good contrast with the black blazer she is wearing along with the railings. The railings also give us perspective leading you through the image. 

main element i like is the looking off camera, this shot has an ambiguity.
