AB Our paper focuses on the semiotic analysis of images as shot by photojournalists. The photographs we analyze were taken in two different cities in Spain during a period of strict enclosure. For theanalysis, we asked photojournalists to select several images. Once we received a selection, we analyzed the content of the images and categorized them. We processed the resulting information throughstatistical methods. The results show the importance of two variables: judgment and social emotions. While both variables show positive and negative significance, the results indicate the relevanceof negative meanings. This may be due to a social logic centered on survival and individualism. This leads us to think that there has been a process of descaffolding during the period analyzed.
