Questions:
1. Photographers have a special role in a community. They have the ability to paint a picture of the town and really choose what they would like to focus on. They can focus on the people, the buildings, the landscape; they can show the good and bad about a town.
2. A photograph can communicate community through the picture. A picture can include people, places, things; all of these can show the culture of a community.
3. The key to a photograph's success is framing + moment + light = narrative. The key moment is necessary for an interesting picture, the lighting is important to show a pleasant image, and the framing is important to include or not include certain aspects of the moment.
4. The second picture of my cheerleading team having dinner at Chili's. The setting is special because it was a fun moment for the girls. They are laughing and smiling, enjoying the team bonding. The light from the lamps above are not ideal for the picture, but they were good for the dinner in person. The moment captured conveys a personality from each of the girls and shows what Chili's customers are like on a friday night.
The third picture in the construction workers series shows a construction worker at work during the day in Somerset. The outdoor lighting is ideal for the photograph, and the man was friendly and open to having his picture taken. His attitude is shown through his smile and willingness to be photographed. This photo shows what Somerset is like and how the people around town are like.
