Should we have dammed the Tuolumne River at Hetch Hetchy?
We did need the dame to support the amount of people that live here, but we are changing the landscape and ecosystem for the benefit of humans but not the park. Was California meant to support this many people? California was not ment to support this many people. We have artificial changed our environment we should not change the places we live in so drastically like we have done to most of the big city. But our planet is overpopulated so we really have no choice to do anything but adapt to our needs. Are our landscapes worth saving? Why? Yes they are because if we don't save them naw they could be lost and with no way to bring them back it would cause emend damage. How should water be managed in California? Yes we have no choice but to manage water, because with the amount of people in our state and the need for water in the ecosystems that are traditionally desert.

Personal: I chose this photograph because we as a species feel more emotion when it is children at the brunt end of something less than good, we are wired to feel saddened when a child is living in a work camp than an adult, even if they have the same circumstances we are much more likely to want to help the child or give the photo more thought. Even thow I cannot relate to the pore girls and their families with all their struggles. Historical: During the great depression the entire economy crashed sending people to lose there jobs and homes causing them to pack up everything they can carry and take along their family and hit the road in hopes for a job and a camp to stay at. Farms were destroyed by the dust bowls and droughts, and with no money left to fix it they were forced to travel and abandon their home. People would take any job they could find because even with very little you still have something to lose. Without money to pay for a house or land you lived in a work camp with only the most basic of tools if even that. Light: The lighting in the photo is the sun causing the children to become featureless and giving them an appearance of someone younger. The lighting is soft and natural from the setting or rising sun. The car and light sky provide a silhouette of the two girls. And the soft lighting from there side washes away their hair and sharp features giving them a flat almost two dimensional appearance. Composition: The photo doesn't seem to follow the rule of thirds or the golden rule. The photo was take from a slight right angle from the angle of the photographer, and the facial expressions of the two children with nothing but despair on her face brings an emotion into the photo, also the choice to take the photo of the sister with the crutches and bone tuberculosis provides a sense of urgency to help. The large tire next to the girl makes them seem shorter and younger because of the scale compared to their surroundings. Subject: The subjects of this photo are two sisters who are just two of six people in there family. The photo was taken somewhere in california on highway near Bakersfield. She shows in her photograph that the two girls are still struggling along with their family, because you can clearly see the tears in their clothing and unwashed face and body's. In the background you can see there car with little fuel left and no money in their pockets to pay for more gass. One of the older girls is walking with crutches and limp arms to support her because she has bone tuberculosis and the family has no money to help their children. They and their family are refugees from Oklahoma who are traveling with nothing left at a chance for a better life, with nothing left but a car out of gas and the clothing on there backs this is their last chance at a new life. In chemistry class we set up our classroom to be a dark room. We covered the door in tinfoil and put lights in vons bags and hung them from the ceiling to give us a safe lighting.
This week we had a photo shop workshop to help create our photos and make them easier to develop, and we started to coat paper in emotion so we can develop them in the future. We also wrote a 1000 word paper about a photo of our choice.

My plan for my new photo I going to be a child jumping of a swing at the park near my house. I edited this photo by changing the brightness and contrast and put the photo in black and white and dropped down the color blue and had the color teal and red at a higher contrast than others.
So... I wasn't here this week but this is what I have made up and learned.
For our photo apparition process we are young a heating plate and something that looks like a double boiler which I can only think of one youse for this set up, to make sure that the water or whatever liquid is in our chemical mix docent boil away while we are preparing the photo paper. In humanities we read the first chapter in of mice and men(which I may have read a little ahed on... and by that I mean I read the hole book.) It is an amazingly written book which reminds me of the book freak the mighty because of the relationship between the main characters. And we are also weighting a 1000 word descriptive pice about a photo taken by Dorothea Lange. |
