Writing Assignment #1



There are many reasons that photography speaks to me. In every image taken I believe there is a message, like they say a picture is worth a thousand words. This photo speaks to me because when I first discovered the image the message it brought to me was “One person can make a difference.” In the image the person is holding in their hand a brand new baby plant, it shows that every person has the power to give back to Earth and make this world a better place. I am a strong believer in giving back and trying to help the Earth even if it might not be much, I still feel as if a little is better than nothing. This image also gave me a message that people have the world in their hands. This photo is also unique because the background and the person’s hands are in black and white and only the plant has color. Which meaning the plant is what should strike your attention. Up until I took this class I didn’t know a photo could have so much detail ,but as we go on with this class I am learning that it does.
