Journal Entry: Your Favorite Photograph

Your Favorite Photograph

Photography is one form of modern art. On a universal scale, photographs document our world. Certain photographs capture a time, an event, a person, a place; they become part of our collective experience. Most people know the shot of the Kent State student crouched over the body of another student who had been shot by a member of the national guard … the sailor kissing the nurse in Times Square at the end of WWII … Neil Armstrong walking on the moon. 

On a personal level, photographs document our lives. Most of us have family photographs that every family member remembers.
