Funny captions - learning how to do it RIGHT

Bettle Bug Birthday


So people cant believe, that this is really may car! Ahh. im so happy i got my buggy for my sweet 16! i've been begging for a monroe, but a car like this is more thoughtful and sweet. sally, maria, nelly and yolis, are so jelous right now. just look at there faces, i cant wait to see what i get next year for my 17 birthday!

Water on Road


So water is gonna be on road, what would be on the road if it shines? Im appreciate the caution, because i wouldnt have notice that there would be water on the road. So what would of happened if i didnt see the sign? it makes me wonder.

Bump


Sally is not the best reader nor speller, so when she tried to give people a caution of the bump, she kind of misspelled it. dont worry most people are smarter than her and realized what it means, but for this mistake, people would not hire sally for no jobs, so she just stands theres and tells people "bump ahead"

Marlboro Marine

2A.) Luis Sinco utilized his skills of friendlyness and care to approach his friend James Blake Miller and get close to him, to try to help him.

B.) The effect of the multimedia effects of the slideshow make it seem more story-like and it kind of added more significance in trying to make us get feelings toward the slideshow.

3A.) I think that the most powerful image from the slideshow would have to be the one where Miller is leaning, with a cigarette in his mouth. To me, it seems powerful because you can see the bravery in his face and how he's all dirty from his hard working job. Just the expression in his face makes the picture powerful.

B.) The sequence of photographs that is most powerful is the ones that were used at the beggining of the slideshow, grabbing the audience's attention and trying to make us feel something.

C.) The audio enhances the slide show as back up. The audio tells the story, the struggle that's going on and the tone in the speakers voice.

D.) The complied images show the story, the actual real life people involved in Blake's life.

Contests Preview, Show and Tell 2

Picture and Video

i like this picture because it shows how the little boy loves baseball, that he would walk trough the rain
just to show how much dedication he takes on this sport. also how hes so dissapointed in how
its raining while hes leaving or preparing for a game

Video
http://photoblog.statesman.com/grease-is-the-sign 
 
the reason i like this video is because i love this play grease, and i love how they found a way 
for not only the people who can hear, but now for people who are deaf. i,m glad that
they can enjoy it by acting it out, and doing a very fun play.

Inspiration


i love everything about this picture. the lighting is like perfect and the angles is just right.
for example if the cars were straight up and not on a diagonal, and i especially like the colors on theres.
it explains how you can have a blank baground with a light color on top and on the bottom its dark, 
but you can be able to see the colors just right.

Great Black and White 3

KLEIN

Most of the of the pictures have where something like that's just not right, 
there's a lot of people which they seem and pass by like everything is normal. which its not, 
there's a picture with kids pointing at guns, and another with a gun on his head.
which the kids around him seem to look like its a joke, or a game.
so it makes me want to learn and makes me wonder a lot, 
of how can poeple not notice that there something wrong in this picture.


1. i see a young boy wos wondering why does he seem so upset to point this gun, 
in which he must of seen someone that heard him as much as he would see them hurt.
2. i smell the the gun powder that's so close, once hes fingger is released, 
not only would they smell the gun powder, but death.
3. i hear the young boy whispering to hes hear why are you doing this?, 
who hurt you this way, theres no need for this.
4. i taste the hate in which he bites his lip so hard, i taste the saliva, 
going down my throat as i swallow so he wont see the fear.
5. i feel all the pain he feels inside, which he feels so much hatred on someone, 
which makes me wanna colceal him, before i feel nothing after that shot.


1. i see the young boy smiling with a gun on his head, reaching to grab some candy 
and how the young two girls smiling as well, 
watching straight ahead without realizing that theres a gun very close to them.
2. i smell the food from the restaurant behind them and the woman who,
walks behind with fresh bread in the basket.
3. i hear the busy cars and people walking around, but no complains about the young boy 
with the gun on his head, or neither from his surroundings.
4. i taste the candy which is going in his mouth, but after that the only sweet thing that he would taste is death. like as if death was so sweet he would even know the difference and smile along.
5.i feel that he feels the pain inside in which he scared for his life, but outside he feels like life goes on and he rathers would feel like dieyng is a thing to smile about.

IDEAS

i would like to go to places people have never thought of taking pictures of, anf how maybe the ugliest things in life could become the most people. i would also make it get the point of the picture and not wonder as much, and either if you see the picture you have a story to the picture but someone else sees it different but in reality theres no right from wrong. i would do like a powerpoint in which the there would be pictures, in a slide show wich they would tell a story, like a short movie,but just pictures with no sound, no moving.

The Story





The story, is that these kids are builing a bridge, 
which its like a metaphor, which it saying that
there building there bridge to get to a part of life where they wanna be when they grow up

Action or Emotion
The action is of a band who is expressing the way the feel through playing there intruments, 
although you cant really see there faces, you see the body language. 
 
Filling the Frame


This picture, makes me wonder whats the spot light on,
it seems like hes interested in this one thing on the table, 
and how its so dark in there that his shirt blends in with the darkness of the room

Hurricane Ike

Hurricane Ike


this picture shows how it the before and after, but i really like how it gets the perfect view, 
and you can she major difference, from the before
on the after theres like no house which arent there anymore.


i like how you see the emotions to this picture. and how the background does too, 
not only did this hurrican affect on one person, 
but to many familys which they have no option but to go on with life.


i like how it focus on this person, even though thers people on the baground,
you focus on him, and wonder whats going trouhgh his head, 
if he has family, or is he lost, it just makes you wonder


B&W photographers in history

Klein



most of the photos of the milanese exhibition
were from 1954-55, shot by Klein for his celebrated, series 'new york'/
'life is good and good for you in new york', for which he won the 'prix nadar' in 1956.
klein went after the urban crowd with a wide, angle lens, with confrontational close-ups,
instinctive grab shots, sharp contrasts and harsh, printing methods.
in 1954, he went to new york to start his new documentary in the city.
