Warm Up

1. I think that is a very interesting statement that might me be more of a generalization. I do agree with that statement and I think that people are starting to get objects that would define them and make them unique. This makes me want to focus not on the subjects when I'm taking photos, but the objects.

2. Yes this did make me want to go to these places with my camera because there were so many bright colors and it was very interesting looking.

3. I think if I was the child of a place like this I would be so happy and creative all of the time because all of these objects just open a whole new world.

4. My favorite photo has a lady sitting at her desk and she is surrounded by thousands of colorful flowers.
