Dictionary Definition Photos... analysis and reflection

My piece, ‘Acquaintance and Passer-by’ is a photograph of the postman who has been delivering to my family home for years. It is observing the acceptable relationship in society between persons within a job role. Although he is very friendly, as he is working, there are some unspoken rules about what is OK, and what is not. This is why I felt the photo should be taken through a CCTV camera. This creates a sort of barrier between the viewer and him but also questions the kind of relationship a person has with someone to feel comfortable about capturing them on CCTV.
