This photograph or photo montage was presented by Joachim Schmid, and the first main thing that we can see is the fact that the photograph is ripped and therefore almost completely removing a person from it. There are many ways in which I could interpret this photograph just at first glance. My main idea about this photograph is that maybe this photograph was originally ripped up the way that it was, because maybe the two people included in the photograph were a couple and the girl in anger, due to a break up ripped up the part of her ex  – boyfriend. Or it could be the other way around in the way that perhaps the photograph belonged to the boy and the girl was the one that ended the relationship, thinking he was the reason for the breakup therefore removing himself from it but leaving her in as he still has feelings towards her and wants to have a good picture of her to remember. Another way in which I have considered this photograph is that maybe, the people included in this photograph are brother and sister, but perhaps the reason as to why the brother is hardly included anymore could because the brother may have passed away and the sister cannot bare to look at his face anymore and it will only make her feel worse. Again, as mentioned, there are many ways in which we could look at a single photograph and interpret it.

This is another photo montage that was created / presented by Joachim Schmid. I think that this is a pretty easy photo montage to analyse and talk about as I feel like the main reason as to why this photo montage was created was to contrast and show how the little girl has aged into a woman, however their main features new change even with such a long time in between each photograph. One small detail that I noticed is that with time, the eye comes down slightly more from the face when comparing it to when she was a little girl. This could be seen as a representation of how the little girl turned into a hard working woman and not only that but also the struggles in life can be seen in her face. I think that that is another reason as to why the photo montage was created the way it was, using the images it did. This is because you are able to really contrast and analyse the aging process of someone, almost as if you could see their whole life with just that one photograph. Another way in which I personally view this photo montage is in the way that maybe the young girl is the daughter of the woman, and the reason as to why they have been  put together way they did is because of the fact that they look very similar to one another and you can clearly see a resemblance between one another. However, we will never know for sure what the relationship between these two photographs are, if there is any relationship between them at all. We will never know the truth between them, however, it is interesting to see the many different ways in which a single image can be interpreted by different people with different views.
