What Photography Means to me

  This was one of the really cool photos that Bob has taken. This is what I would like to call Bolts get back. I say this because I know some of the history that is going on in this photo. Basically before this team U.S.A. beat bolt and Jamaica in this race U.S.A. is actually winning the race when all of a sudden a guy trips with like 40 yards to go and Jamaica ends up winning an Olympic medal. But besides that point I will explain what I feel is really going on in the photo. In this photo you will see the look on Usain Bolts face of agony and pain but that's really just the look of a guy who is pushing his hardest to in the race. The main point that I want to express in this photo is that this is the world stage, so I really like how Bob was able to catch all of the emotions going through someones mind when they are only 100 yards from a gold medal for their country. This photo also catches the emotions of all the people in the background who are supporting their country and reall...

  Ernst Haas was the person who we had to do this week and I can say that I really liked some of his pictures but this was one that I really liked. The first thing that I noticed was the 4 things that you can look into to see further away. At first someone may have been like look at those 4 things and not get the possible ideas behind them. The first idea that came alive from me was that those 4 things look just like human faces. All the faces look very sad and maybe they look that way because nobody has paid the money to look through them and they are feeling worthless. Another idea that I got from here was the idea that we are always being watched. The "faces" of these objects are looking right back at you and it gives me the creepy vibe of a murder movie I watched called the Neighbors. It almost feels like every step that you take you will see the eyes of the objects follow you providing a super creepy vibe. This is the vibe I get in this photo and honestly without these b...

  The person that I choose this week was a very inspiring person to me. This week I choose Maggie Taylor, and this was the first picture that I chose. While looking at this picture the first thing that I noticed was the storm clouds and lighting on the table. My first thought was that and then the look on the girls face. What I came to think about this image was that her emotions were under the top of the lightning and storm clouds and eventually when the parent pulled off the top all of a sudden, the lighting and storm clouds came out. The girl was then very angry at that time because her parent pulled off the lid exploiting all of the emotions that the girl had been building up over time. I then looked a little more into the picture and I see that there was a bird on the right and I thought maybe pulling off the lid was a good thing. I think it was a good thing because the girl can now be more at peace and relax. I say this because a bird like this looks like a peaceful bird. The...
