American Soldier slide show and captions (review)



A. I think the most powerful photo to me is this one, #47. He's saying goodbye to his loved ones, it shows a lot of emotion the way they are hugging each other like he's never coming back, like they'll never see him again.
B.     
Set #1:He's at home in Denver : photo's #1-10
Set #2: At Basic Training: photo's #11-50
Set #3: In Iraq: photo's #51-70
Set#4: Back in Denver: photo's #71-83
I think the most the powerful set is when he leaves to basic training and has to say all his goodbye's. So Set #2 & 3.


Underneath each photo is the caption that ran in the Denver Post
 
A: Ian is on the main one in the photos because he is the main character that they are showing in this story.
B:he captions enhance to the photographs because they already know what they are talking about.
CAPTIONS-
1.) Ian got thrown a t-shirt so they could make the t-shirt into his bag.
2.) Ian got shaved by this man named Tom Abner and it says that he has shaved millions of peoples heads.
3.) Ian and the rest of his team had to carry their bags cause they did something wrong.
A.) Other features that enhance the photographs is that they know that they are talking about Ian.
B.) Videos are better than photographs because in the video they are actually speaking and telling you what is happening and on the photographs you have to be reading so you could know what is happening.
 
C.) Photos are better than videos because in videos you might not catch everything that is saying and on the photo you would not miss nothing.
 
"Hiding" he finally has the courage to go outside and hide from his nightmare, that's what he gets for sleeping to much. In a leafy forest, or a big bush, he must hide from the thing he fears most.
5:
A. How do these other features enhance the photographs?
They make it clear on what the photo is enhance.
B. In what ways are videos better than photographs? Provide an example from the Denver Post Web site.The videos show more than what the pictures show us.
C. In what ways are photos better than videos?  The photos don't take as long as the videos and you can see the caption so they tell you the story.
