I think the photographer did a good job on the angle he wanted to achieve. It's not the coolest picture I've ever seen in the world, but they all did a fine job. I don't like the picture so so much because it's kind of weird liking pictures of guys with muscles.
 * D**. What is your personal response to the image? Do you like or dislike it? Explain why.

I think the image is designed to make me feel either good or not good about myself. Not good because this guy's so much stronger than me but good because they might want to help me look and feel stronger. The effect still doesn't make me want to go buy a product they might want to sell me if they even are, but it could effect a body builder.
 * E**. Consider the connotations of the image. What do you think the image is designed to make you feel? How does it have this effect?
