History of vogue.
The first ever issue of vogue was issued in 1892 but little did Aurther Turnure realise vogue would be the biggest fashion magzine of the 21st century! Vogue has won so many awards over the years its too many to count from best magazine to Britain's, America's and Japan's biggest fashion magazine!

Vogue infulences for the magazine layout were firstly from a king kong poster.

Research Paul Politis (Black and white photographer)
The work of Paul Politis is aim for simplicity, find the most attractive part of the composition and focus his picture outcome, whether that's a scene or a detail. Alot of Politis work is based outdoors as he prefers natural light setting. But when he does 'Nude paul brings the same concepts to his studios trying to get as much natural light as possible before artificial lighting is used.

This photo is called 'Rain' I really like this photo as the child is in focus through the wet glass.





This photo is called Graffiti bridge. An abstract mess of messages and              
                                                       symbols found on a bridge support in ottawa!
