The first artist I have looked at photographs in a documentry style and in black and white, he focusses on everyday life from things such as ordinary people of all ages to sports events and night clubs and concerts. His work is known to be of popular culture in the 1960s.
I chose this because I like how the white clothes stand out against the dark background, therefore capturing your eye quite suddenly. As you begin to look closely and study the image you notice that even though they aren't touching their heads are both tilted downwards leaning close together, giving the image some intimicy. Withing the image also you can see Malick has caught a moment between these two people. They are dancing, having fun, enjoying the moment, you can see the happiness and energy.
