The Little Chihuahua

Well, i m' not a big fan of photography. It's not like I dont like it, it just I never give it the time to appreciate the photos. I take photos with my own camera, but I dont have any here in the compùter class, so i ll tell the history of how i choose this photo, like my "favourite" picture.

Elliot Erwin took this photo, he is one of the greatest professional photographer i have ever known (maybe its because i dont know many photographer). He probably its the most famous modern photographer in the world, he took many pictures, to famous people like Marilyn Monroe, Nixon and Che Guevara.


Now i present this picture, from NY city. Elliot take this photo in 1945. Streetlevel shot comparing the size of a woman's feet to a sweatered chihuahua. I choose this picture because, its a really funny one, when i went to the Elliot Erwin exposition in the Bellas Artes, I saw many important famous people in those photos, or some conceptual photos, but when I realize about this photo, I really laugh about it. Looking that poor chihuahua, with that funny face beside the big dog.

 It was amazing, because I went to that exposition without a hope. I expect some  radical crazy and conceptual art, but i really understand the Elliot way to make picture and  it was fun.
