Photographs for the JEP Exhibition

These are the photographs I am entering into the JEP exhibition at the Jersey Museum. There will be Channel 103, Channel T.V and lots of members of the school at the event.

This is one of the main photographs in my picture-story because it is a portraiture shot of my grandfather, there are not many images of him on his own. I think it shows off his personality massively, he was a very strong and brave individual who fought in the war and raised eight children. I like the texture of the image and how it looks old and vintage. There are creases through the middle of the photograph and it is slightly discoloured around the edges but I think this adds to its style. 

This is one of my favourite images from all the photographs from the albums, I think the the way the man is just sitting reading his paper makes everything look very casual and everyday. The black and white style is also representing the time period the photograph was taken in, as my grandfather did not have the money to afford photographs in colour.
