Eugene Smith uses under and over exposure to heighten the emotion of his images. He uses darkness and brightness to tell the story of the subject of his photographs. Many of his photographs are documenting people during times of war. In the last photograph. Smith used dodging and burning to heighten the contrast of the smoke in the sky. The two opposing colors represent the two sides that are fighting the war. At the foreground of the photo there is what appears to be barren land that has been destroyed most likely by the warfare taking place. In the foreground there are also soldiers. Some of the soldiers are facing towards the explosion while the others are facing away.
