I thought that this picture is the most powerful because it shows a little boy holding up a gun with his fingers.. the little boy respects the soldiers and what they do and i also think that it the strongest photo because this is a little kid looking up to them.
In the pictures they are mostly written in present tense. The captions enhance the pictures because it shows what they were doing in the picture and it kind of narrates the picture.

After 6 months, Ian comes back to his home town to visit his brothers Alex and John.. and he almost forgot how it was with them and he cherished every moment.

After a long day Ian falls asleep while taking off his shoe ans roomate, Jacob plays a trick on him and puts shaving cream on his head.. Look like he'll have a ride awakening!

After 5 years of being together Ian and girlfriend Angela finally get married, and they have a great future ahead of them.

5 Pictures

Shutter Speed

At the beginning while the sun is still partially up and the courtyard has reasonable light I would choose to do (A) The dunking booth. Towards the end when there is no sun and has gotten dark enough that you can't see from one end of the courtyard to the other I would choose (E) the DJ/MC working at the middle of the circle.

Aperture

The picture on the top was taken by a F16 which means that the aperture was smaller. The picture on the bottom was taken with an F2.8 and it relates to aperture because the background is blurred out and the focus is on the bird. The smaller the aperture the larger the F-stop, the higher the aperture the smaller F-stop. The Depth of field means the part of the picture that stands out more and the part that is mostly focused on.

Abandoned Theme Parks

Okpo Land, South Korea

     If i was to get a camera and take pictures I would pick Okpo Land because a lot of things happened there an it would be a good opportunity and show the evidence and capture things that people may not have known. I think that people would like to see how it looked now. It was shut down in 1999 after all of the things that happened .. the owners just left it like that, literally no one knew about it, they just left.
     I think some places would be good to take photos of are like haunted mansions, war zones, the era in Africa, or abandoned ships, and in the jungle.One that i would chose is the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania because it would be fun to find things about it because is haunted and some people are probably too scared to go inside to take pictures so the pictures that would be taken would be very rare. If I were a photographer, I would take pictures of things like this .. things that people don't usually take pictures of just because its a risk. To be able to take pictures at this place I would have to get a plane ticket to Philadelphia and get all the equipment like the camera, things like night vision because its probably really dark in there. To take the pictures it wouldn't break any laws because they allow visits. Also, it would probably a lot of money because of traveling and all the equipment that is needed but overall I think that it would be a good project.

FUNNY CAPTIONS

 All 8 puppies hanging from clothing line when owner Mike forgets that he put them up there while he was cutting the grass. Mike was surprised that they were just relaxing up there but they sure did look cute.

Baby Jason trying to fly, when mother, Stephanie leaves to take a nap, she comes back to find her baby boy hanging from the wall. His shirt was hooked on to a hook from the wall. Stephanie says she doesn't know how he got up there. Jason is going to be a track star when he grows up.

A day at the zoo just driving by the animals a donkey sticks his head into the car window making Tyler laugh. The donkey strikes a pose for mom and dad, Tyler had a zoo trip to remember.

Great black and white photographers, PART 3

When I first looked at the photographers photos I liked them because she took pictures of unique things and also because she would be in her own pictures. On the first photo I see a girl maybe a librarian reaching out on the bookshelf trying to get a book. I smell the smell of new books and newspaper. I hear silence because it is a library and all the people are quiet reading their books. I feel the intention of the photo, It looks like she is trying to be sneaky about it. The second photo there is a girl looking out of the window sitting on the window seal with one leg on it and the other just resting. I smell the smell of a new house. I hear silence because it seems like she is all to herself and she is just relaxing
