Sally Mann


Watching this video about Sally Mann and her photography about death is interesting. You would have never thought death could look like this and be wonderful. The way she does her photography is was make the pictures about death come alive. You almost feel calm looking at the pictures and wonder what live the people must of had. Taking pictures the way she does with the old style of not moving until the expose is just right. This is the way they used to do this in the old early time of taking pictures. Death is a way to express the way of feeling and wonder. I would have never thought death could be beautiful, however the way Sally Mann took the pictures it give me a different look. Overall her picture taking is unique and beautiful.

Tierra Miguel Farms



Going to this place was my first time. As matter of fact I did not know this place even existed. I found it interesting learning how the people count on this farm. This was a great place to learn about farming and what they have done for the community. I enjoyed the history about the farm, but really got me was that with the little tour of the area that they were farming that you could eat the vegs that were still there. Most of all this is place were a child can learning about farming and it is nice to know were there food is coming from. The interact of the kids who do show up is really nice. I never knew that along with helping the community it is a learning place. The best part for me is when the sun was setting. I was able to get better pictures and some of the plants did have unique colors.
