I came across David Ayer work on a website called juxtapoz and found it extremely fascinating. I really like this idea of colour, he's made turned pictures of naked women into something quite surreal, which intrigues me. I can't work out if hiding the females faces makes the images less or more controversial, on one hand their identity is hidden but at the same time it feels like they're being used for them, rather than having their expressions in the image to lead the viewer know that she is happy with this. I really like effect he's used though on the image. He does his work through double exposures which is another technic I could try. With the middle image I really like how the model has been given a camera too, it's this idea of everyone watching each other which I find interesting. With this as well, she seems to be more in control, you get this idea that she is having fun, rather than being made to stand in front of the camera, naked and uncomfortable. The colours in this image I would say are unnecessary, I don't feel they add anything to the image, I think it would be a strong image without it.
