envisioning somerset-photo series 1/2
Photographers can play a role of representing people in the community that would not normally be publicized. This can create community between people who would not normally know about each other. Representing the community can promote it whether it shows that the community is happy and a nice place to live or if it is a less fortunate place and has things like poverty and drugs. If this is shown, the community has more of an opportunity to improve itself. In the fourth photo of my grandfather watching tv, the tv is the main focus and my grandfather and his office frames the shot. The photos of my grandma cooking show that she works hard is has spent her whole life doing so. Each photo represents a routine she follows every night, She makes dinner for herself and her husband and usually reads a book afterwards. My grandparents are quiet and keep to themselves and they generally dont talk much while their eating and i feel like you can almost tell this by looking at their faces.
