Joshua Horton, Brent Beachtel, Jarod Moses, Hannah Aldern- Parks v Sanders
While the idea behind both of these pictures is very similar, both photographers trying to capture a woman in her workplace, These two pictures are very different. The biggest difference, I feel, is in "American Gothic" be Gordon Parks, the woman in the picture looks incredibly out of place. Like She doesn't belong where she is. In August Sanders picture, "Cleaning Woman," the woman looks like she is right where she belongs, almost as if she enjoys that being a large part of her life.

This is an interesting idea about "comfort" in the two photos. I hadn't thought of that, but I can see what you mean. Perhaps the woman in "Cleaning Woman" exhibits more confidence.
