01 June. The Oxford Essence

Tell me.
Is this image corny and predictable or inspirational and quintessentially middle England. Is it reportage or staged?
This week I took two of our Masterclass students to Oxford. Photography is all about giving your self time and that's just what we did.

Simply, the brief was to capture The Oxford Essence.

One mans cliche is another mans originality. Context and perception is is everything, is it art, is it social comment, is it flattering, is it poking fun etc?

Is it staged? Does it matter?
The important thing is does it cause you to react to it? If it has it is worthy of our attention

I like this photo, even if it was staged.
