James Nachtwey


James presentation on the images he shot was quite disturbing and hard to watch for longer than a moment but as the reading went on there the images became closer to home and then it was our soldiers that were there being photographed. 
 
After watching this It has made me want to do more research on this photographer. I have found that the more and more I look at his work the more and more I become intrigued with his work and what he is there doing.

FROG SEX


I chose to write about this book I found on blurb.com. This name of the book is Frog Sex and the reason why I chose it was because it had an interesting title and an artsy cover. Plus I was over sifting through the pages of blurb...
 
This is a fun, erotic and romantic look at sex and love. It's the garden of Eden, but there are no humans, only frogs. It's about love and loving in all its phases. A humorous and thoughtful view of love and sex that all of us have experienced at one time or the other. I'm sure you will relate to many aspects of this delightful romp through the garden of sex and relationships!

Janel Munoa and The Removal Act

WoW!!!
What a powerful video, all of the images in her video were so moving and made you really think about what was actually going on in the world around us. 
 
I also thought to myself while watching this video "this chick is really mad." There was this look on her face like, come on do something about it, and she was jumping up and down on this rock, shouting. I kept thinking, it's not the rocks fault. 
 
The nerve of some people.
