flea market

The salem flea market is somewhat a impoverished mall where different cutlers interact with one another. The poor culture buys there food, close, and toiletries, and the middle class teens buys there knock off purses and other questionably legal items. This project was an attempt to document the people and the products.

Regarding the Pain of Others

Regarding the Pain of Others is a book of articles and essays by Susan Sontag. This collection was mainly about how photographers relay the message of topics like war, violence, and foreign relations. What I took away from this book was the importance of photographic integrity with relaying a story. But as this applies to art photography if you are not intending to inform but simply to gain an emotional reaction the integrity of the photographers process is less important.

SORRY EVERYONE

So I have not posted anything here for a about a month. I just wanted to talk for a moment about why I have not posted.
I don't have a good reason for the hole months but for the later half of that time I was sick for about two weeks. during that time I missed several classes and that is were the chain reaction started. I was not able to work on any work while I was sick and then everything backed up from there. but now I am caught up and plan on posting what I have been working on the last couple weeks.
