Shot type and Angles
The angle that has been used on this photograph is a eye level angle, we know this because we are looking at him head on and the shot that is used is a wide shot so the audience can see what is going on in the background. However the background is out of focus which is called shallow depth of field, this is trying to tell the audience that the motorbike is going very fast and the picture has been clearly captured with them still moving.
Equipment
When taking a picture like this the photographer Bob Martin will use a tripod because if he held the camera in his hands even the slightest movement will ruin the picture and make everything out of focus. This photograph has been taken with a camera with a fast shutter speed which is shown by the subject/person, they are in focus and aren't blurry.
Framing
The framing for this photograph is a wide shot, we know this because we can see everything that is happening within the shot. The thing that is used to frame the main focus of the photo is the dirt and the seating in the background, this is to make sure that all of the viewers focus is on the people riding the dirt bikes.
Lighting
The lighting that is shown within the picture is not natural lighting it is lighting within a arena which is high-key. The arena has to be high-key so the audience can see clearing what is happening within the event and they are not struggling to see because it isn't bright enough.
Meaning
The meaning of this photograph is to show the audience that the people riding the motorbikes are going really fast and I think he is trying to show everyone how he can capture a picture of the speed that they are going with focus on them. It also connotes excitement because of the way the motorbike and rider is positioned and angled.

Shot type and Angles:
The shot that is use within this photograph is a wide shot this is shown by the amount of land that the viewer can see. The angle hat is used for this photo is the eye-level shot, this is used because the photographer wants to show not what is in the background but everything
that he can see in front of him, it make the shot seem like the audience is there looking at it for themselves. When taking these kind of photographs with wide shots most photographer use something which is called the rule of thirds, this is where they have a grid on the camera which helps to compose a balanced image, but some photographers don't need the grid on the camera because they already have a visual in their head of how the picture should be composed.
Equipment

Image Analysis:
https://guliverlooks.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/lee-jeffries3.jpeg
Shot type and Angles
The shot type that is used for this photograph is a close up, this is to emphasise the emotion and to show detail within the homeless mans face. Something that is most common when using close ups is shallow depth of field where the background is out of focus and all of the focus of the camera is on that one subject. The angle that has been used is the eye-level angle, this has been used because when taking a picture with this it is trying to show the audience how they would see the man in real life, it is more neutral than most angle shots.
Lighting
The lighting of this photograph is high-key lighting which is where the lighting that is used is bright, this is shown within the mans face because we can see the detail within his face and the detailed emotions, emotions that I see within his face are no caring about what happens in life, he may feel like he is at his all time low because he is homeless and nothing else that happens could make him feel more worthless than he already does. Also the lighting within his face enhances that lines within his face to show the audience that he isn't as young as he used to be and it also enhances the colour of his eyes with connotes him been unique, this is because most people of a different race to him usually have green eyes but it is less likely for a man of his ethnicity to have such bright coloured eyes.
Meaning
The meaning of this photograph is to show that people are unique in their own way and that everyone is the same on the inside but are different on the outside because of appearances like eye colour or skin colour. He may look the same but he is homeless which means most people may think he doesn't have a place in society but Lee Jeffries thinks otherwise.
Composition
The composition of the photograph is the man in on the right hand side of it which draws the viewers attention that way. The other thing that also draws the viewers attention is the colour of his eyes and the fact that he is smoking, this is because his eyes are a vibrant colour and the end of the cigarette is lighting up as he is taking a drag of it.
Shutter speed
The shutter speed that will have been used within this photograph is an average speed which is 1/125th of a second, this is to create a still clear image.
Aperture
The aperture that will have been used within this photograph will have been a wide one like f4, this is to let enough light in for the exposer of the picture, it will be a wide one because the natural lighting is low-key which means not a lot of light will be let in to the iris.
ISO
The ISO for this photograph could be 400-1600, this would make the camera more sensitive to light which is what needs to happen because the place that the photograph has been taken is dull and doesn't have a lot of light.
Orientation
The orientation of this piece is portrait and this is shown by the close-up that the photographer has used and the amount of background that the audience can see.
