Greensboro Field Observation Report
For this assignment I decided to go walk around and spend some times in downtown Greensboro. There was not much happening downtown Saturday afternoon. I stumbled upon everyone in Greensboro who did not want to be photographed. I hope to have better luck next time.While I was wandering around downtown I noticed a guy riding a bike. He was doing some tricks and I was so excited to capture an image of him riding in the middle of the street. However, by the time I got close enough he had stopped and did not want to ride anymore. He let me take a couple of images of him sitting on his bike before he no longer wanted to be photographed. He was sitting in the perfect place because the walls around were a light color which worked to light his face

    The subject matter on which I am doing this assignment on is a piece of photography. This piece was done by a local photographer Greg Hill. He accordingly named his work “Pierre Pressure”. This piece of photography captures a pierre and its surroundings in Sebastian, Florida. Above the pierre is the focal point of the artwork, a breath-taking Florida sunset. The sunset is constructed of various hues of pink, orange, and yellow. The alluring sunset is ever so slightly hidden by a veil of oddly formed clouds. The water at the bottom of the photograph reflects the beguiling beauty of the sky. To the left side of the print stands the pierre. The pierre itself is in much darker lighting than the rest of the subject matter. The subject matter in…

    For this situation, a photo (as a guide with quantitative information) was without a doubt worth a thousand words and spared numerous a huge number of lives (Johnson, 2006). This is more than the account of an extraordinary guide, in any case. It handles bigger issues, for example, how new thoughts and exploratory disclosures get to be embraced, frequently against incredible resistance, even from the intelligent people of the day. John Snow and Henry Whitehead are incredible good examples though of us who could not care less about finding and conveying reality, notwithstanding when it is…

    CDC Museum Observation

    During the CDC museum visit, the two exhibits I found the most interesting were "Where Children Sleep: Photographs by James Mollison" and the Iron Lung. Both of these exhibits caught my attention and I learned a lot from the tour guide, especially about the iron lung and polio. The “Where Children Sleep” exhibit was very enlightening and it was fascinating to see how different children live across the united states and the world. In the photos that I took pictures of, there was a young boy form Italy and a young boy from brazil and both were around the same age. The stark contrast between how they live was thought provoking; the young boy from Italy was homeschooled with his siblings in a nice home on the country side and lived freely and comfortably,…

    I didn’t want to annoy the employee so I just ordered a Big Mac. When I pulled up to the window, I was nervous; I didn’t want the employee to see me because I had just made a fool of myself. But, the employee did see me and noticed that I was a teenager. He immediately assumed that I was part of a prank and asked me, “So where’s the camera?” to which I replied “What camera?” He chuckled, handed me the Big Mac, and I drove off. On the drive home, I laughed the whole time. I kept picturing the man’s face when he asked me where the camera was. But, along with the fun, this experiment was also a great learning experience. I learned that violating a social norm isn’t such a big deal after all. Before, I thought that doing something like this would be embarrassing and that people, like the McDonald’s employees, would make fun of me. But the only response I got from the McDonald’s employees was a little chuckle and life continued. Perhaps I shouldn’t worry about my social mistakes too much because the people around me don’t really care as much as I think they…

    The first thing that I realized when walking the line of a biker was that people are very judgmental based on merely looks alone. While some students I encountered instantly realized that I was only in a costume, others, teachers for example, did not see through what I was doing. Even when students realized that I was not a real biker, they still glared with non-entertained eyes as if I were some kind of fool. When I was instructed to enter the student services office to request my class schedule, I was met with great hostility by the woman working behind the desk. I requested a simple task, but because of my appearance, the lady made it out to seem as if I had asked for her first born child. Her negative judgment was evident through her body language and lack of motivation to help. On a more positive note, some subjects of our…

    Do Nothing

    • 606 Words

    Executing this exercise was extremely difficult for me. Doing absolutely nothing was an effort because I had to constantly remind myself not to check my phone, to stand still, and not to look around. After numerous attempts, I turned off my phone and the mental reminders became less needed and doing the exercise became easier. The first few minutes I didn’t feel anything in particular. I was simply standing, looking straight ahead, and absorbed in my contemplation, but after about five minutes I couldn’t help but notice some people giving me outlandish looks. I tried not to avert my attention to them but even still I could feel their eyes on me. I started feeling really uncomfortable and feeling a sense of judgment and rejection. As if because I was standing there with no evident purpose that I was suddenly displaced from society. I believe the couple of stares I received from passersby and the stares from the people that were watching me for a prolonged amount of time and were witnesses of my unusual behavior were the root of my feelings of social nonacceptance. My odd conduct even seemed to arise suspicion in the officer parked across the street from me. After the ten minutes were up, I looked back and saw the officer examining around the spot I which I stood. On the contrary, others didn’t even seem to notice. They seemed too immersed in their own lives to even take note of my abnormal behavior. However, those that did notice didn’t fail to make me feel as if my behavior was ignominious.…
