Adjective Pictures Description Write-Up
First Photograph by Lee Friedlander
The picture’s three adjectives tie into one another very closely. The surrealistic quality of the photo comes mostly from the fact that the face in the TV screen looks too big to be a part of a television show, film, or commercial. It could also be because it is black and white, which also contributes to the strangeness of the picture. The supernatural word I thought of because I feel the photographer purposefully made the TV look like it had a human face.
Second Photograph by Garry Winogrand
The photograph is frightening because the woman looks very scary. The photographer took the picture at just the right time to capture the woman’s wrinkled nose bridge, giving the picture a monstrous quality. Also adding to the monstrous quality is the way that the woman subjects fingers look like claws. Because the photographer managed to bring to light a frightening, monstrous aspect to the subject of the picture, the photograph has a lot of personality. In a photograph where the subject needs to have personality, frightening is a great adjective to personify.
Third Photograph by Andreas Gursky
The first and most obvious descriptive adjective is numerous, which refers to the many multiple islands as the subject of sorts. They dot the ocean water landscape, and are also natural because they are islands. The natural ocean blue and lush, dark greens of the islands blend together in a lovely tropical setting. This tropical photograph thus blend together into a numerous and natural description.

Ideas:
For Frightening: A student holding another student in their' arms, hugging them. Their' face has been Photoshoped off to resemble a blank face. All facial features are gone.
Or Strange: Two or three students have a tea party in the school bathroom.
Or numerous and strange, a picture of the school grounds with paint buckets spilled all over the ground and grass. Also maybe a painter photo shopped in too.
