Very interesting take on the subject. This comes across as more graphic than photographic, yet still brings a sense of the drama and significance of the milestone. 7

1958: Bobby Fischer wins US Chess Championship at age 14
by GrayGhost

Comment:
Very strong shot. Your model gives off a Bobby Fischer look, and so does the image. The tie pulls the image forward in time, and so does the dark background - small nitpicks. Wonderful shot. 7

April 4, a Sad Day in 1968

Great 60's feel in this shot. Love the cars and the very 60's motel. Even the tones in the shot come across as 60's. I am confused as to what actually happened on that date. I can bring it down to a few possibilities, but sometimes I just want the quick answer. 7

1981 AIDS is first identified

The pose, coloration and crop all work together to make this image really work. You've identified the population that was impacted very heavily in the outbreak, without identifing a person. Simple, yet very powerful. 8

The Voters Rights Act of 1965

Top notch photo! The perspective is terrific, as is the processing. Very much the feel of the 60's with the noise and tones. Some small detail are pulling this forward in time, the wide tie, the hair cut and even the fit of the shirt. That is soooo hard to avoid. Excellent work 9

1971 - U.S. Supreme Court rules that busing of students be ordered to achieve racial desegregation

Very well done. The exchange between the girls is great. Your details keep this from being even higher. The clothes and hair ties bring this to recent times and the colors seem to bright for the photos of that era as prints tended to fade over time. Even the gaze (which I love) brings it forward in time. As the ruling went into place, the understanding wasn't there very much and the eyes were lacking contact at that time. Even so, 8

September 7, 1969 - Monty Python's Flying Circus' First Broadcast on BBC

I love this shot. There is such exuberance and delight in the expression, the pose and the set up. I love the sense of freedom shown in the "frumpy" nude body, which shows skin, but not sexuality per say. The stuff near her head and back, plus the lighting above her head are a problem, yet I still love the shot. 9

You have the right to remain Silent.......Miranda (1966)

Wonderful and gritty shot. Love the lighting, pose and BG. More than that, I love the feel of the shot. In the nitpicky stuff - the dirt comes across as false and contrived. Even so, 9
