Yes, it is time to hit the classrooms once again for another exciting year of learning, whoop-dee-do! Anyway, joking aside, I am pretty excited about what this year has to offer. I look forward to learning some new stuff and getting better at some old stuff, and of course I am excited to inch a little closer to graduation day.
Anyway, we are supposed to talk about our reading, right? I would like to bring your attention to the picture on page 10 of Practices of Looking. This picture, taken by Arthur Felig and titled "The First Murder," shows the faces of several children and adults as they look upon a murder scene. The reason this picture caught my eye is due to the multiple expressions shown by the different people. The woman in the middle looks distraught, the women on the right looks somewhat disgusted, the girl in the front is wondering why someone would take a picture of her at such a time, and the boy on the left looks like he is enjoying himself way too much. This picture captures so many emotions of how people react to a certain situation, and I find it to be an awesome picture (although it is kind of creepy due to the smiling child and context).
