FREEDOM
Freedom in our nation
Freedom of expression
Freedom to be who you want to be
Freedom to show emotions
Freedom to leave this life and enter a new
My story focuses on the concept of "Freedom". Beginning with the first image of the flag and the fist in the air, this displays the freedom we have while living in this country. As the pictures move about they show the freedom that we, as people, have in our lives; expression, personal choices and lifestyle, emotions. The last picture of the story shows a gloomy cemetery which I'd like to see as something beautiful rather than sad. It is my way of showing the freedom we have from this life when our earthly lives are done and over.
There are definitely different ways in which I could have organized this to change the story and/or change the emphasis on certain images. The images can obviously also be viewed in a different way. Some may not see freedom when they view my images.
There are other elements that could add to this story, whether that be a song playing in the background that verbalizes the thought of freedom. It could also be a bible verse that involves freedom that could be positioned in the beginning or the end of the story of pictures.
Mariah, your story is really unique and I really understood the message you were presenting. I think the individual text you provided underneath each photo was very helpful in understanding the message you were delivering. Great Blog!
