The Quiet American

This photograph was taken in 1958 by Pete Turner. I like this pciture because of the color. Even though it was winter and it was snowing, the photographer makes his photograph have a blueish tone to it, so it makes the picture seem cold and lonely. The tone of the color goes good with the theme of this picture, which is lonely and quiet. I also like how the photographer took the picture with only one car in it, so it seems as if everyone is missing or something. The photographer also used the rules of thirds.
