Photography

Hello everyone, i'm gonna show my favorite photo, this photo is just a cover of an album of radiohead, this album is hail to the thief, is very interesting, i don't know what is the meaning of the photo, but the fans of radiohead thinks is about politics.





This album cover was created for Stanley Downwood, this cover art was named as "Pacific Coast" is a road map of Hollywood with words and phrases taken from Los Angeles's roadside advertising, such as "God", "TV" and "oil", in place of buildings.

This is some of the words from the creator to explain this cover album: Donwood said: "Advertising is designed to be seductive and attractive and, in a lot of ways, it's very beautiful. But there's something unsettling about being continually sold something. I liked taking the elements of roadside advertising out of context because it removes the imperative and just goes to the essence of it – the pure heart of advertising."

This photo to me is very important, because this was the first album of radiohead that i heard, and just because i liked the cover. Now i like too much the band and his music.
