Jennywanderlust

Jenny is trying to project that she is adventurous, curious, outdoorsy, fun loving, and trendy.

I think she is successful because of the places that the photos are taken in and the positions they are in. The photo of feet, holding hands and legs on the beach are all photos considered trendy and adventurous. Immediately when seeing that, people also think fun and curious.

I think that Jenny would be a good friend because she would always be wanting to do something. I get the impression that Jenny is young, so I can't really tell just from the places she is if she would be a good mother. She definitely seems not ready. By the nature of the pictures, Jenny doesn't seem like she'd be doing anything immoral or illegal, so I don't think there would be a problem with her being a good role model. To me, I don't know if she would be a good wife just because she seems young and not ready yet. I assume young because I know my mom doesn't post pictures like this, but I know me and my friends do.

Fear Statement

The fear I chose was acrophobia, which is the fear of heights. I chose this because I get afraid of falling when I'm too high up in the air.

Seeing the second image does not change my viewpoint of the original photograph because fortunately enough, I hit the nail right on the head. Although the photo is of an artist creating, I still hold true to the belief that the photographer was getting across a different message. However, the portrait by itself does look like a lost girl. The portrait itself is huge, almost the height of a tall building. The size adds to the fact and idea that she is lost, so that more people see her. It looks like the artist tackled the piece by splicing it into sections because of the seams on the canvas. Judging off of the height of the building it is in front of, I think this could be in a more urban part of Ireland. It also shows the artist and some people on a bridge over water, which also leads me to believe its in a well populated area. Because the installment is on a bridge, everyone who needs to take that bridge to get around will be able to see it. Business men, lawyers, doctors; all kinds of people. I'm guessing that the amount of money that went into the materials to create this was way up in the thousands. I think splicing it was the easiest and most reasonable way to be able to mount and engineer it so that it worked. They probably hung up one section at a time, making sure it was aligned perfectly. The image feels kind of sad and lost. The expression on the girl's face shows a sort of longing and sadness.

Image Response

In this image, there is the face of a girl and a man on a cord hiking down her face. The woman's face looks a little more like a drawing, while the man looks more real. I think that this image is both artistic and documentary. It looks as if the girl is a mural of some sort and the man is the artist. The picture might be photoshopped in the sense of it being edited, but not composited. I think the photographer had a deeper meaning behind the photograph. I think it represents the nit picking and fixing the blemishes of the female face. The intent was maybe to show how critical others are of their appearance. The man being so small shows how tiny the details that people wish were fixed on themselves are, and how any average person might not even notice them.
