Ethics and Photography Research

In photography ethics can play a very vital role in how individuals produce and create work due to restraints, whether that is legal or classed as a gentleman's agreement amongst other members of the art world. The thing is ethics can be very broad and can incorporate a bunch of different factors about copyright, types of subjects used, ethnicities and a whole range of other variables.  For starters the main issue that causes a lot of tension between artists is the fact that many can copy a piece of work directly or indirectly. Meaning they might copy a very small part such as a similar idea or way of capturing their image, or directly in which they make work that is virtually a direct copy of someone else's work while trying to pass it off as their own and something brand new. An example of this is Sherrie Levine's "After Walker Evans" in which she essentially made a like for like copy of Walker Evans work from his "American Photographs". Many people di...

My Website

With my website i decided to go with a stylish design that is prominent but still keeps class and an aesthetic throughout. I tried out a variety of different website builder sites (Squarespace, Wix, GoDaddy, Weebly) However, after careful consideration and what worked best for me, i stuck with Wix. This was mainly due to cost of the website, ease of use and also the options that were available to me to not only improve the look of my website but also functionality and also collating a domain name. But, with all the payment plans available Wix doesn't force you to pay for your website until you are satisfied and want to have a professional look for everybody to see. However, you can post your website without paying but Wix put a couple of ad banners in places.

So for now i have the ads on the site but would obv...
