Yellow Boat Project

This project is the same as the AIDS one but we got to choose which ever topic we wanted. I chose to take a photo that would convey a message to the general population. I didn't choose a topic because i thought it would be hard to have someone pretend to have a problem in a photo that they do not have. I chose to have the model look like a strong person with a lot of pride, at least thats what i wanted. I put this quote with this picture because i think it really helps everyone who reads it. I think this photo would help someone with AIDS, someone who has been abused, basically anyone with any kind of problem and we all know that everyone has some kind of problem in their life. I just wanted to take a picture that would inspire people to live a spectacular life and not let certain things, no matter how big, take that away. I was inspired to take a photo like this when i learned about the Yellow Boat. The little boy stayed strong for his family and tried to make everything okay even though he was dieing. He was strong, proud, and he never felt sorry for himself. I just really wanted my photo to include that in some way after i heard the story. Overall i think the photo turned out nicely. <3
