1. My Spring Break
Over spring break I went to Japan with my family and friends. This is the most memorable picture from this trip because it represents a very eventful day. I was in Kyoto, at a bamboo forest. My brother, some family-friends and I decided to explore and went hiking. Even though we got lost and didn't find what we were looking for at this time (a monkey park miles away), I still had a lot of fun. While hiking, we found this beautiful view. Without this adventure, I wouldn't have been able to take this picture. With this pretty and amazing picture, there is a happy memory accompanied with it.
2. Visual Metaphor: beauty/something you take for granted
This photo is a collage of photos that I had taken in Pennsylvania last summer. I was picking fruits and vegetables at a local farm with my family. After each basket was picked, I had stopped to take a picture. I have never noted the beauty of something that I take for granted for quite often. The way the sunlight shined on the tomatoes showcased the differential of colors in the basket. Also, the food had very vibrant colors, being freshly picked. Being from Hawaii, I don't usually see food that comes straight from the farms. Seeing the beauty in simple things, like fruits and vegetables, shows how I can easily take for granted something like food.
3: Visual Metaphor for Macbeth: Guilty Conscience
I chose this picture to represent Macbeth's guilty conscience because his conscience plays a major role in the play. The colors are mostly white, black and grey, with streaks of purple. This could represent how he is feeling guilty which is clouding his mind. Macbeth cannot focus after killing Duncan and Banquo. His mind clouds his judgement making him unable to sleep (causing him to hallucinate). Also, in some places, I can see faint faces. I think that this can relate to his hallucinations and the "ghosts haunting" him. Finally, there is faded writing in the painting that blends a little into the painting. Again, this relates to his guilty mind reminding him of his inhumane crimes.
