This first picture was from an article about a student protest agains the Chilean President of a university there. I thought it was amazing that this moment was captured because it puts readers into the middle of the protest, and we are able to see the intensity of the situation. It also shows the troubles with the education system and the lengths that students will go through to protect their rights.
This picture was taken for a story written in the Associated Press, and it was about a tornado that swept through Oklahoma in May of last year. I thought this picture was very fascinating because it shows the destruction going on for miles. We can see what kind of land this tornado took out; however, it also gives readers a small personal glimpse of the destruction by showing the woman in the front. I thought it was a really heartbreaking picture that shows what a tornado can do.
I really liked this next photo because it is so simple, but it's also really cool. The story for this photo was about a woman in Florida who'd been collecting yard decor or these pink flamingos for years. I loved how the photographer got down at a lower angle and used their main focus as one of the flamingos, but then, the intensity of her collection really sinks in when you see the background of the photo.
Finally, this last photo was taken during some of the bombings during the Boston Marathon. I thought the bright colors in the photo made it really fascinating because you can see the contrast of the people and the smoke from the bombs. It gives the story so much more depth because you see the chaos that was occurring and how even those running in the race were seriously effected. This guy that was knocked down was apparently really close to the finish line, according to the description.
