METAL - Rick Genest
A variety of elements in this picture help demonstrate metal in its many forms. First there is no color involved in this picture. When I think of metal, my mind automatically goes to silver, aluminum, tin, i.e gray metals. This photo has many hues of gray, demonstrating the many types of gray metal. Second, the most obvious metal aspect is the metal studs in his leather jacket. When I think of the types of people who would wear this jacket, it is only obvious that metal heads would be sold on a jacket like this. Lastly, the more subtle but not so subtle element is what seems to be a signature pose for Rick; his fingers pointed like a gun, which are generally made of metal. So many pieces of the photo just jump out and scream METAL in all its forms, composition, color, music, and life.
FIRE- Jack Skellington
Now before you say this isn't Jack Skellington, let me just tell you that Jack Skellington is also the Pumpkin King. This photo is much more direct the Rick's photos, but there are still some implicit aspects. The obvious aspect is that Jack's hands are on fire, thus putting the element in full sight. Fire is destructive if not controlled properly, and Jack's character thrives on destruction, especially when he is involved. In the opening scene of the movie, he lights himself, his pumpkin King Self, on fire just for a show. The last aspect is the fact that fire is involved in the picture in another explicit way, but many might not think of. How is a pumpkin lit up? Fire!
