Photo Manipulation


i think this image was manipulated to get a veiwers attention. from my view it looks like the target audience is scientist

Manipulated / Retouched Photo

this image is reduced because the right regular picture shoulnt be swirled like this. the dolphins should be in tact and water doesnt look that shiny and 3-D. this photo looks like it was retouched in photoshop. it is very beautiful.

My Retouched Pic


In this pic, as you can see this elderly womans pic was retouched. I don't know what kind of technology they use but they did a marvelous job on the picture.
As you can see, the woman on the left has very deep wrinkles as if she was 90 years old!! However, the picture on the left makes her look like she is in he late 40's

i believe this picture of nicole richy on the cover of seventeen magazine has been alter. I believe this because its not uncommon for a celebrity to have gotten a blemish, pimp or zit photoshoped so that they look flawless on the cover of a magazine. if you zoom in on a untouched picture you can see the pores of the persons face but in this picture if you zoom in you see no pores and me all know that everyone has pores on the face.
The target audience of this picture was for teen girls. this is obvious because its on the cover of SEVENTEEN magazine.
The intension of this picture was to draw teenage girls to the magazine. Nicole Richy is very what i would call "fetch" someone like her would be perfect for the cover of a teen mag

a) The reason this picture was altered is to get the customers attention to want them to buy that type of sneaker.

b) The target audience is anyone who likes jordans and would want to pay more than 100 dollars on their sneakers.

C) My reason why it was altered is to make the jordans look fresh and make them look powerful and superior to any type of sneaker.
I think the image was altered because the photographer wanted this photo to grab the viewers’ attention. By getting their attention he had the model Naomi from America’s Next Top Model take a picture falling from the sky.

The target audience is viewers that like to watch America’s Next Top Model and agencies from the modeling world and the fashion industry.

The photographer is trying to emphasis his imagination, and creativity.

A) The reason why the image was altered was to make the car more appealing to the consumer. The car in the image has a very good paint job and everything on the car looks fresh

B) The target audience is anyone looking to buy a new car. Also it is targeting anyone who likes cars and collects them.

C) The intention of the image is to make the car look good and make you want to drive it. The impact of the image is to make people go out and buy the car and try to impress people.

I see soldiers marching on the sidewalk. It looks like the fall and the setting is outside. i see soldiers and it make me think of war. what i know about this time period is that they didn't have colored pictures and soldiers came home once in a while to visit their family. the photographer's intentsion was to show the people that the soldoers do go to war but they come back home too. another person's reaction to this image they would think about the soldiers just came back from a war.

Blog 3: Photo Analysis


What people & objects do you see? I see what look like American Soldiers and Military boats

What is the setting and season? The setting is on the beach of Normandy. It looks like it is the summer season.


Is it posed or candid? It is candid because the soldeirs are getting ready to go into battle and are not posed.

What do you know about this time period or event? I know during this time that World War 2 was goin on and up until this battle the Allies were losing and the Axes were winning until this battle turned the tide of the war.


What can you conclude about the photographer’s intention? Why did the photographer take this photo in this way? I can conclude that the photogrpahor was actually there during the D-Day. I think the photographor took it this way because he wanted to show the audience what it feels like as you are getting prepared to fight.

What can you conclude about other people’s reaction to this image? I think that other people would probably see the smoke and think that it was a chaotic places with people dying everywhere.

What, if any, kind of historical impact, social awareness, or call to action may have resulted by the publicity of this photo? It got people wanting to help the soldiers out by probably signing up for the army.

This picture makes me feel very sad because the soldiers know they might not come back home.

This is an image of kids starving in Africa. I see about 15 kids half naked in the hot sun hungry. Looking at the image you can see almost every kids ribcage. Very few of the children in the image look happy. The image isn't candid because not all of the children are posing for the camera.

This picture makes me feel really bad for these children. It makes me want to help by donating money or food. It is sad how these kids in Africa are starving and people in America are taking things that we are fortunate to have for granted. This makes me think about how fortunate I am to have the things I do have.

It is sad to know that there are kids in the world starving everyday. I have never truly known approximately how many people suffer from hunger in Africa until I found this picture. It has been stated that around 11 million people suffer from hunger in Africa and throughout the world not including the U.S. 852 million people are starving. These numbers are shocking and make me wonder how this even began.


Just from looking at this image I can tell that the photographer's intentions were to make people more aware of what is going on. Instead of talking about what is going on the photographer captured it to have a bigger impact. This photo really makes people stop and think about how unfortunate this situation is. It possibly might even make people want to do something to help. This and the many other photos have had to have some kind of imact on someone to make them want to do something to help.

I see a crowd of black people packed together against a grey background, and only their heads can be seen. In front of them are the heads of two army soldiers. The centerpiece of the image is a crying baby being held up in the air above the crowd. Well, since this a Hurrican Katrina picture, the season is summer. This is a candid picture, seeing as everyone looks way too miserable to be posing.

The dark background on which the picture was taken gives the picture a sort of depressive tone. And to top it off, the crying baby pulls on the hearstrings. When I see the crowd of people, it makes me think of panic and misery. When I see the crying baby, it makes me think about suffering. And seeing the soldiers, they kind of look indifferent, and that they're not doing much to help. It all kind of gives me a feeling of helplessness, like there's nothing I can do but watch them suffer.

What I know about Hurricane Katrina from the news was that it was one heck of a hurricane. In summer 2005, the hurricane flooded and destroyed a big portion of New Orleans, Louisiana, and the Gulf Coast. Citizens were stranded and in need of help, and the US took their sweet time getting there. Citizens in our own country had horrible living conditions, with dirty clothes, no home, and no food or clean drinking water. They were considered "refugees", which I thought was kind of an insult. As a result, the government got major criticism because of their slow response to the disaster. It was a wake up call to the United States that they need to be better prepared to handle crises within our own country.

The photographer's intention was to make us empathize what the victims of the hurricane were feeling, by setting the mood with dark color tones, and the crying baby. I'm pretty sure that other people would react to the picture the same way I did, which was helpless, and not able to do anything about it. The publicity of this photo caused the United States to put some more pep in their step in helping the hurricane victims, and has spawned many volunteers, average people like myself, who were donating goods, with some actually going down there and lending a helping hand.

Blog 3: Photo Analysis

In this image some of the things that I see are Nancy Reagan wife of former President Ronald Reagan, officers, and people. Nancy Reagan and the people look on as former President Ronald Regan’s casket is transferred by the officers onto a horse-drawn. This image is taken to show the emotions of the people and Nancy Reagan as Ronald Regan’s casket is being transferred onto a horse-drawn. The setting of this image is taken at 1600 Constitution Avenue near the White House. The season this was taken place was in the summer time. This image is candid because this was taken place on June 9, 2004.

From my point of view, I see depressing and downhearted. This makes me feel depressing, but at the same time I feel great that a lot of people were there to honor Ronald Reagan. This also makes me feel that this is how everyone should act to honor and help others, instead of violence and hating one another that is happening around the world.

Some of the things I know about this event is that Ronald Regan died of pneumonia on June 5, 2004 at his home in Bel-Air, California. After the state funeral in Washington that drew leaders from around the world, he was buried at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California.

I think the photographer intention was to let us see from a distance to see the emotions of the people and Nancy Reagan. By taking this image from a distance the photographer was able to show a wide image of the things that was happening as former President Ronald Regan’s casket is being transferred by the officers onto a horse-drawn. I think when other people see this picture they will feel the same as I do, depressed.

The target audience is men or some one who is looking for a car.

The impact intention was to show off the style of the car.

In this photo I see Jewish people getting packed to the sides in a convoy by Nazi’s. There are wheels and squares, an arch and several other shapes. The setting looks to be a warm sunny day in a Nazi controlled area. The season in which the photo was taken seems to be the summer time. This photo is candid and untouched by anyone at anytime.
From my point of view I see suffering, devastation, and separation. This makes me feel as if the world doesn’t do enough to stop its own peoples suffering. If somebody really wanted to help they would have acted on Germany’s weird behavior before something of this magnitude happened. If someone really wanted to help out Germany after WW1 then they would have occupied Germany and help that country get back on its feet. But people chose to stay out of the way until someone attacks them.
Before this assignment I knew Adolf Hitler took over a weakened Germany in 1933 after WW1. He wowed audiences with his charisma and propaganda that sounded right to the Germans. He killed 11 million people in the “racial cleansing” in which 6 million Jewish people perished. He was also the cause of WWII. He killed himself in 1944. I assume he thought he was doing the right thing at the time.
I think the photographer wanted us to see how the Jewish people were being taken out of their homes and taken to their deaths by the Nazi officers. They took the photos this way so you could see the raw human emotion on the peoples faces. I think when other people see this picture they feel sad and helpless because there is nothing they can’t do anything about it. I think this photo was taken during the events of WWII but was only displayed after the war to show how horrific the events that Nazi Germany had put into place were.

This image of the shrine of a young black mother who goes by the name Analicia "Anna" Perry. She died this summer by a bullet to the head while litting one of the candles at the same spot her brother was ittentionally murder at. The shrine captures loneliness and sadness to the poeple who knew her and what she capable of by being a proud mother and wanting the best for her child. The sad part is not being there for your love one and watching her grow.

In this divesting picture it seems to be that there are 5 children in this pictures dying of starvation. The way that this picture makes me feel is terrible that human beings have to go through life living like this. Why is it that people know that these things are going on and letting it happen around the world? They have the money to contribute to giving them food and clothing. It is just disgusting to see this and know that I can’t be able to do nothing about it as of yet.

If you look closely in the picture there are two little children, one of them is sitting of the floor and one of them is lying on the mothers lap. It took me little while to notice this and when I did I was in aw. To be that small and skinny who could not feel sorry for these people.

About 50,000 people die every day in the Third World under this condition alone. Just imagine how many other people are dying under other conditions. When you think about how do you feel does it make you feel outraged or does it make you feel nothing at all because you do know these people. I bet if you were in their position you would want them to help you right

In this picture I see a woman who has a wombed eye due to 9/11. In the picture the woman is trying to make her way from the site w/ help from another man. You can tell that the man was also invovled in the accident b/c his clothing is dusty and dirty too. In the background b/c you can see a ambulence so this indicates that this woman isn't the only injured person there.
When looking at this picture I felt bad for the women and men invovled b/c they had been badly hurt. I also felt bad for eveyone (universally) because if you weren't invovled physically in Sept. 11th you were in some way invoved b/c you had to know someone that was invovled or because after sept.11 there had been major contraversy that effected all of the U.S.
September 11th is a very important date in the U.S. history. On sept.11 3 plans were crashed in to the twin towers and into the world trade center. These planes were crashed by about 12 Saudi Arabians. As a result thousands of people died and 100s were injured.
This picture impacted me in a huge way. It helped me to get an actual look @ the scene of sept.11.

My Devestating Picture


In this a devastating picture, this child from Niger is suffering from starvation. He and his whole country is suffering the same way this young child is.
From seeing this picture, I already fell devastated for them. As you can see this child is crying from no food. It looks like his eye is getting infected by bugs, and his mouth is terribly dry. Also his arms are very skinny and his body is as well.
If i was involved in this situation, i would go all the way to America and bring back loads of food and supplies. Even clean clothes for the youngsters. I would work along with Oprah to get her to make a news conference and a charity fund for the Nigerians.
