The target audience for this genre of photography is generally one that has a longing and appreciation for “untamable” nature. The photographer may have intended to show what little civilization has been able to view naturally–winding rapids in a forest of green, unobstructed by humans. This is a contrast to the industrialization of the modern age.

I think that the photographer intends to display a contrast with daily experiences by capturing the raw stillness of untouched nature. The water lies still, plants untamed, with no presence of man-made interference. This landscape is not easily accessible to the majority of people who are closer to the city. Seeing a landscape like this would suggest that you have the extra means (money,… more

Innocent If an “innocent eye” is void of calculation, sorting, or classifying, then with my first photo, I tried to take as quick of a photo as possible, avoiding precise framing as much as possible. I don’t think I succeeded, as with my photo, the main subject in frame was a tree. If the photo has a subject, a figure centrally placed in the image’s frame, then I don’t believe… more

innocent I tried to photograph with an “innocent eye” by quickly snapping the photo before I had time to instinctively adjust the frame. I took the photo without any strategic placement, just capturing what my eyes saw. I do think I succeeded, because there are elements of the photo I would’ve adjusted to hide if I were taking it for purely aesthetic reasons.

Innocent For my photos I decided to choose something simple and went right outside in my own neighborhood. I live in a very rural part of Covington that has only become a suburban neighborhood in the past 6 years. For the innocent eye approach, I just focused on the general neighborhood, point blank, with the first picture I took as a picturesque look at average American… more

Innocent:  I took the photo outside my apartment. I saw the sky was looking beautiful so I just took the photo of the sky with the fence of the memorial. The graves and the trees made the photo beautiful.

Constructed : I believe, I’ve succeeded to take the photo. As per the book, even before we make something subject of art, its already artifice.… more

Innocent: An “innocent eye” photo would have to entail a more reactionary-style form of photography. Rather than pose or “frame” my land, I took my first photo of my dog as he played with our neighbor's dog’s rope. No previous staging, using what
first caught my eye when I walked outside as a guide. E. H. Gombrich’s explanation of the innocent eye not existing is due to the… more

Innocent: I tried to capture an image without much forethought. I didn’t mind how the setting was framed, and I didn’t retake the photo so as to maximize the likelihood that a good image was taken. I just took my camera out and snapped a picture. I
think that makes my picture “innocent” because it didn’t require any additional effort, apart from using my natural eye as a… more

Coleman: Innocent: I attempted to take a photo without thinking about the background or where it was located. This to me was the closet that I would get to takinga photograph with an innocent eye. But I don’t think I succeeded. Even though, I claim to have taken the photo with an innocent eye, I still was conscious of the placement of objects and angles in which the photo was… more
