This photograph was taken for commercial
purposes. It is part of the Schweppes advertising
campaign.
The background to the photograph is artificial.
Fruit looks to be falling down around the subject
in the photograph, giving a sense of fruit
filled chaos.
The fruit is falling in such a direction that it
draws you to the subject. The pieces of fruit
are on a slant, as if they are being attracted to
the woman.
The fruit in the background have asymmetrical
balance they arent evenly distributed and one
side seems to have larger fruit that the other.
The subject herself is very expressive. She looks
to be in the middle of movement and it leads the
viewer to assume she is causing the explosion of
fruit.
The light in the photograph is very bright and
looks to be artificial.
