Blog Entry #19

Can you think of anything that:

1) should not be photographed? Why?



I think that all images should be photographed because no matter what photos are an interesting way to represent emotions.  Although some things are uncomfortable to take pictures of, I do not think there should be a limit on what can be taken.  The only time I think things should not be photographed is if the subject wants to be photographed.  

2) cannot be photographed? Why?


It is difficult to properly photograph movement.  Certain emotions also cannot be photographed, or photographs can distort the emotion that the photographer intended.   It is also difficult to photograph a change in time.

3) you do not want to photograph? Why?


I would be very uncomfortable photographing things like starvation, sick or hurt people in hospitals, natural disasters, and wars.  I would not enjoy these events because although it would show extremely raw emotion, I would never be able to remove myself completely in order to feel comfortable photographing people in such real and intense pain.
