American Soldier


1) I think this is the most important picture because this is the beginning of his journey being recorded. This is where it all begins and this is what sets up the idea that he will go through hardships because he is applying for the military. This is what starts the story being photographed and wanting to be presented, what the photographer wants the viewers to know.
2) The images work together to tell a story because it is step 
by step what happened to this guy, in chronological order. They show what he went through, from the start of this specific journey to the end.

3) The captions enhance the photographs because first of all they are really well done. They are written with good descriptions and information that really helps you understand more of what is happening tot his guy.

4) Ian Fisher is a high school student who decided to enlist into the American Army. He struggles at first, he is not keeping up physically and he also has some behavioral issues too. Though he pushes through and goes through many hardships within the army and back at home. After his long journey, his story ends with him marrying his girlfriend Devin.

5) The verbs definitely change. In the first sentence, they were present tense and in the second sentence they were past.

6) They range from 2-4 sentences on average. The information the first sentence provides is usually about what is going on in the photo, maybe in a little bit more detail. The second sentence usually gives more background information that you can't really get from looking at the photo and that usually is detailed to the photo specifically. The third sentence if there is one usually provides even more background information. There are quotes within some captions and some are four sentences.

7) It's possible because if the photo's are well taken with the objective to show viewers something they are trying to get off and captions are well written, that's really a story with pictures. Photo's do contain details and feelings affiliated with them and that is enough to show something. Captions also provide detail to given in the picture.

8) Well sometimes people prefer detailed sentences with figurative language. You can get more in-depth with a story because the writing is typically longer.

Funny Captions

This is Betty in the grocery story because she has to get some fruit and is wearing her favorite shirt. Betty need to buy some sweet fruits for Barbra and Tom in the background because they were a bit salty that day. Margret is in time out because she has been yelling at some strangers in the mall. She came to the mall to get her son a birthday present because she forgot to get one for him. It's Harriets birthday today as she sits at her kitchen table in her kitchen. She was so tired last night and I hoped she would feel better the next day because it was going to be her birthday.

Academic Preview Assignment

Action and Emotion I chose this for action and emotion because one it is an amazing action picture. I think it is so incredible how all the sparks are flying and it is a really pleasing photo to me. It all shows the emotion of focus. The girl doing what she's doing, is very focused giving the photo not a sad feeling, but not overjoyed. The Story I chose this photograph for the best story because by looking at the picture hard enough you can see that it is some sort of play taking place. You can see all the things going on and even imagine what else is happening, did happen, or is going to happen. Filling the Frame I chose this photograph for this topic because there are so many things to look at in this photo and the whole frame is filled. You can focus on the woman smiling, or the bright yellow flowers she's holding, or giving them out, or the guy she's giving them to, everyone around the girl and guy, the giant yellow object in the top right corner. 1.

100 Photographs

1) I chose A Man On The Moon, and First Cell Phone Picture because they were both big accomplishments. Where would we be without having Neil Armstrong walk on the moon? How would our life be different without the cell phone, it was what led us into a huge technology advancement. I also chose the Black Power Salute because of all the events it came to just to fight for equality, and that we have com far from the Equal Rights Movement. I chose The Terror Of War and Hitler At A Nazi Party Rally because I thought Hitler caused war and death and that brings terror and worry. There are wars still going on in our time today it's almost like it's part of our life and that it is gaurenteed to happen. 2) For A Man On The Moon, I read that it was Aldrin in the photo, that Neil Armstrong took. Aldrin didn't really care for being the second man on the moon. Neil Armstrong got lot's of credit and Aldrin not so much. In the First Cell Phone Picture I read that a man named Kaun was b...
