Location C: Photographic Analysis

In this Geography GCSE controlled assessment project, I will be focusing on rivers and I have chosen a hypothesis to prove that erosion is making an impact on the Loughton Brook Rivers. My hypothesis is, “The river Loughton brook becomes wider and deeper due to erosion as it moves downstream”. I will be investigating if erosion takes place downstream in the river. I will investigate if hydraulic action has an impact. I will study about vertical erosion, lateral erosion, Cross profile and hydraulic action.

Early Landscape photography used the same principles as painters in order to create pieces of art. Before the 18th Century, artists used landscapes as backdrops and as a frame for the principal subject. Towards the later part of the century, however, artists such as Nicolas Poussin started to romanticize the environment, instead using it as a principle subject in paintings.

Next, it is necessary to identify the land that is possibly flooded and this can be calculated as:

A reoccurring topic of the essays, concerning photography, discussed during the course is the future of professional photographers/photojournalists. Some believe that the easily accessible spread of amateur photography can and has put a strain on the works of professionals. However, with magazines such as National Geographic still in print after over a century, it raises some questions. Though the spread of information, and thus photography, has increased the platforms and need for professional photographers and photojournalists still exists.

Tracy and I sat down to prepare for our outing with my sister-in-law Shelly and her husband James, who were visiting from Kansas City. I must admit, I was a little skeptical about the thought of treasure hunting. James informed me that all we needed was a free membership with the website geocaching.com, and a hand held GPS unit or a GPS enabled smart phone. We then created an account and decided on a profile name. We were now ready to see what this treasure hunt was all about. We soon discovered it was a technology-driven game of hide and seek using global positioning satellites. Members are able to hide caches and log their coordinates for others to find. These hidden caches contain a log sheet for you to sign your profile name. Some

Vegetation: Places with plentiful variety of flora and fauna will have a higher population density than places with less variety and quantity. The quantity and quality of food and shelter, as well as the scenery, will have an impact on people’s choice when choosing to travel. (Interrelationships: There is an environmental impact as farmers want to have the best land for farming. They need to find areas with good soil and might possibly have to cut down trees to make room for the

I plan on majoring in art history at USC. This major combines the study of art and culture, which are two topics that I am very much interested in and passionate about. I would also minor in visual culture and hope to enroll in the AHIS 100g: Introduction to Visual Culture. Having a father as a film producer, I have been fascinated by film and photography since I can remember and appreciate these art mediums especially as they portray social injustices in our communities. One class in particular, within this minor, that got my attention was AHIS 373g: History and Theory of Photography, which would combine my interest of art and visual culture. As an art history major, I would also like to take part in the study abroad program to learn more

According to google maps, there are approximately ten public schools in the Sunset Park neighborhood. Some of these schools are Sunset Park School, Sunset Park Prep, The Henry Longfellow School, P.S. 503, The Vincent D. Grippo School. My school site is the Vincent D. Grippo school,

For each question, give your answer as one of the following: (a) Tinytown; (b) BigBurg; (c) Both cities have the same value requested; (d) It is impossible to tell using only the given information. Then explain your answer in each case.

The image that I first selected was the Cahokia Mounds. The land covered about 2,000 acres and ranged from 10,000-30,000 people (64). According to the image, the inhabitants live by farming and they had great architectures. They had a well organized community and it looks to follow a certain order. Basically, the community was well kept and organized. The image shows a society that is proper and that everyone in the community has an important part in the community. That each individual has a certain part in the community that keeps it rolling. Overall, the inhabitants had a structure of their society that showed how organized and well put the community was.

The piano keys were a part of my Unit 4 Photography Assignment, in question 2 regarding filling the frame. This photo in my eyes represents this principle perfectly because it is a simple composition only showing the keys instead of the entire keyboard and ideally there is no open space that could be seen, this was taken in a crowded store so I am pleased with the approach taken an up close shot (not a macro shot I got up close and zoomed in a bit more to about x2.0); however I am not completely pleased with the chosen light, the artificial lights (florescent) were really harsh and couldn’t have been tamed since it was a store for the public not a studio, in future events I will lower my aperture. Another thing I would like to think I could’ve

I think this photo is a good representation of space because the small hill in the bottom middle leads your eye back and everything gets smaller towards the back. I dropped the horizon because I liked how the skies take up almost half of the top because it shows movement and distance from one side of the photo to the next. Originally, the photo was very dark so I increased the brightness and contrast at different levels for the sky and the trees/houses respectively. I added a sepia photo filter to give a warm effect, and dodged and burned the parts that were hit by the light and shadowed by it.

The photographer’s purpose in taking this picture is to let people all over the world see how bad these families in India live. That the globalization is very bad that economic doesn’t look good. Why are these people living like this and why won’t the government help them.

Personally, when I view this picture, it is shocking to me. When I see such a great deal of people living in one place it makes me think about how their lives have to be so different from mine. In Murphy, our population of less than 2,000 people doesn't even compare to the place circled on the map. Here we have space and room to breathe, where as, there they can't even drive without almost hitting somebody. In that area there are high poverty rates, high need for food, low sanitation, and extremely close housing in most cases. In Murphy, we have lower poverty rates,less of a need for food, higher sanitation, and spread out housing. Our lives here, in Murphy, are privileged to say the least.
