TrappedBy Juliana Suzukawa Isolation, sadness, depression. These are three main words that I think of when I took, and looked, at my photo. When my friend passed by the cold shadow of a metal pillar, he gave me a truly marvelous idea. I swiftly went over to my friend and gently tapped his small, covered shoulder and asked him with a faint smile, "Hey, can you pose for me for just a sec, please?" He then gave me his approval and gave me the exact pose I was looking for. I then took a couple of pictures and told him that he could get up. After, I gave him all my thanks and appreciation for doing this favor for me. In my photo, there are only a few elements of art. One element is texture. I can see texture on the warm lit ground, my friend's cold, small body, the hard metal bars, the trees with giant leaves, and the form of the shadows in the photo. Another is emphasis. The emphasis is my friend because he is the first thing you see in my photo. Lastly, there is repetition. There is a lot of repetition in my photo. The shadow of the cold metal bars, the shadow of the giant leaves still on the branches of their mother, and the shadow of someone standing on the side. The emotions that I had been feeling on this bright sunny day were sadness and depression, and I think that is exactly what I gave my friend in this way. My reasons for feeling so sad and upset were caused by personal family problems. I think whoever is looking and observing my photo will first see my friend crouched up, looking as if he is in search for warmth, or any other source of heat. They will notice a shadow person to the right, who looks as if he or she is watching him and seize him if he tries to escape. When all this comes together it all creates one word, the word that is used for a princess stuck in a castle guarded by a dragon, the word that is used for a man stuck in a labyrinth with a murderous minotaur chasing him: trapped.
