#1: Imagine a world without photographs. Describe what this world would be like.
A world with out photographs would be empty. No one would really know what other places look like it would be a very dull place.

#2: What does the word "photograph" mean to you?
A photograph to me means capturing a moment or event. I look at them as physical memories that anyone can look at. 

#3 “Photography deals exquisitely with appearances, but nothing is what it appears to be.”~Duane Michals. Write a brief reaction to this quote. Is this quote applicable to your experience with photography? What does it mean to you? Do you agree with the idea presented or disagree?

I do agree with this because you set out to try and photograph a type of image that you are trying to portray a certain meaning with and I found that its never exactly how I wanted it to come out. Things we look at from day to day is never what they appear to be. There is always another meaning behind what's right in front of us. 

#4 “If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera.” ~Lewis Hine.

Write a brief reaction to this quote. Is this quote applicable to your experience with photography? What does it mean to you? Do you agree with the idea presented or disagree? Describe situations when photographic images reveal “the story” (as compared to words). Describe situations when words reveal “the story” (as compared to images).

I suppose this makes sense to a certain degree however, sometimes you cant really explain a moment with words. You could never do justice to an emotion of someone who has just experienced the best or worst thing of their life. You can explain what happened but you can never replicate the same initial feeling in words so that someone else can feel that too. A group of photographs can reveal a story if they are in a chronological order. Words will alway reveal a story but you will never get the full image or experience.
