Photography Blog Assignment: Week #3 (Due Friday, Sept. 16th)

Photographers!  As we've discussed in class, not every photo has to have a person or people in it to show emotion.  Inanimate objects can evoke emotion as well.  Annie Leibovitz, a professional photographer we've been viewing work of in class, does this exceptionally well in her work.  In the photo posted below, she creates the feeling of abandonment or even fear.
In your blog for this week, describe in words how you would use inanimate objects, as Leibovitz does, to capture the following emotions:
  1. anger
  2. disappointment
  3. joy
  4. sorrow
  5. excitement
Remember, no people can be used in your descriptions - only inanimate objects.  Your answers to this blog might look something like:
"To take a photograph that shows the emotion of anger only using inanimate objects and not people, I would take a picture of a broken glass on the floor with a pool of water around it.  I would also include a broken plate with spilled food all around it."  
Create a photograph, described in words, for each one of the emotions listed above.
