American Soldier

 

1)
A. This photo is the most powerful, because this moment of someone that is close to you leaving to become a soldier has happened to me before. And for me that is very traumatic and scary. That is why seeing this photo of two grown men that cry for there buddy makes me think back on that moment.

B. Images 1-7 take place in Denver, Ian's home.
     Images 8-50 were taken in basic training.
     Images 51-70 were taken in Iraq.
     Images 71-83  were taken when Ian came back home.

The most powerful set of images were the images 1-7(Ian leaving Denver), because his leaving caused emotional reactions not only on the people in the photos but in me while looking at them.

C. The Images work together by being put into chronological order. If i just looked at the photo above without other before and after I probably would react in a totally different way.

2)
A. The captions under each photo are written in third person present tense.

B. The captions enhance the each photo by explaining what's going on and maybe even some back ground information on each one.

This picture of words that completly explain themselves is merely just for amusment. It was taken by a park ranger at a nature park who thought it was so funny he had to post it on facebook for everyone to see because you know every nature guy loves technology and just had convienatly a camera on him right then an there. Oh and who can foreget you can smoke in this park!

This photo is showing a sign in the middle of Kansas somewhere and in clearly states that "HITCHHIKERS MAY BE ESCAPING INMATES", with freakin bullet holes in it!!! It was taken by a tourist names Bobby-Joe (whos last name has been cut out). He was driven along and saw this halarious sign warning him to not pick up any hitchhikers with bullet holes in it.  

This picture says itself that only in Texas is there a guy with a cowboy hat washing his cows a@# in the car wash. This was taken by Kayla Luve, a tourist, who at the time was getting her car washed and saw this man washing his cow in the car wash.
