“Trusting the photograph was probably a huge mistake from the beginning.’

I believe this is completely true because you can manipulate photographs but only to a certain point, you can manipulate color schemes, lights shadows in work. For example with painting a picture you can manipulate colors make, with the photographers you can’t manipulated colors and lights but you skew the view of the viewer, they might see something totally different from what you might see. So basically you have to see it to believe it.

Department of environmental conversation do this type of work, they show so you what we have done to the earth, to help our survival. This picture with the water running from the drain is an example of industrial waste being poured into the river. I think this attempt is successful because we can go to a place and actually see this happen. But on the other hand this next picture shows the environment pure like with no human interaction what so ever. Whether or not it is moral it depends on what view you have on the situation.

Tattoo



The first setting/community i will be visiting is an tattoo parlor. I am getting a tattoo in the next couple of days, so the interest is very high. I want to explore the tools that are used to get started. How they start, what they do, how is it finished. How They finished their body art. I'll visit tattoo parlor a handle fun of times to get a feel of what goes on in the booths of tattoo artist. I'll probably photograph Anya getting her tattoo in action.


my second setting for the photo document is an auto shop. i think this I will be interesting because it will so how much time effort and patience goes into fixing these delicate machines. the tools they use, how they use them, what they use them for, and how long would it take. for example, do they have to order the parts how long will they get there etc. I can visit the mechanic over the weekend because they are not that far away from my home.
