The first thing a reader notices when viewing a photograph, is the action happening. This shapes a lot of what the reader will think about the subject of the picture. In this photograph by Greenfield, we see the subject is a young woman. Her positioning is up close to the camera and everything around her is faded softly, making her the only thing in clear focus. Making her be very close up to the camera makes the reader understand the subject is important. Also, by fading out everything except the subject, Greenfield shapes the woman to be very self-important. Furthermore, the subject's actions are also important to the positioning of the photograph, as the subject's actions will create a message on the subject itself. The woman is fixing her already perfectly done hair while looking at herself in a tiny, decorated, hand-held mirror. Greenfield has the subject bring attention to detail, her hair, which she shows off, under a disguise, which is what many wealthy people do. The subject fixing her perfectly styled hair shows the reader she is superficial. Additionally, the subject is staring at herself in a handheld mirror. The reader seeing the subject hold a small mirror up just to look at herself will show her to be self-obsessed. Greenfield does this with small details such as the setting not being a usual place you stare at yourself, a dinner table. As well as the mirror being handheld with a handle, which are not very common in the present day. All these small details of the positioning of the subject amount to Greenfield shaping the subject as being vain and self-obsessed.

In conclusion, this photograph shows Greenfield portraying the wealthy to be superficial and arrogant. She uses the specific position of the camera and of the subject to portray this message. 

Through the vulgar word choice, Marquez sets up a violent atmosphere around Nassar, which gives a very negative impression of his actions. 

This painting is a reference to the questioning scene in the book “The Stranger” by Albert Camus. In this scene we have the main character, Meursault, being questioned by a police official. The symbolism and colour in this scene is quite important in the overall theme of the book, as the idea of faith, and lack thereof, is introduced. Firstly, the symbolism of the crucifix to communicate the role of faith in the meaning of life. It is made very big and much lighter than the other colours to draw the eyes to it, establishing importance. Secondly, Meursault (the small man) refusing to believe there is a god, while the police officer (the bigger man) insisting there is , is a parallel shown through the colours in the painting as well. There is a light hue around the police officer contrasting with the darkness of the background. This gives him almost an aura of divinity. Paired with holding the symbol of the cross, this shows that the man's faith gives his life light and meaning compared to Meursault. Furthermore, the colours used in this painting, all apart from the police officer, are dark and sombre. This suggests that life without faith is also dark and sombre.
