2.2

 

Draft

It’s cold and wet. It feels like the perfect  horror scene, a deserted eerie night full of fog that that creepy neighbor that know one ever sees pop up and snatches you. It is creepy and unnerving but yet it is peaceful and simple. The fog blurring everything in the background except for one single carry cart. No logo indicating where it belongs and nothing in it indicating that someone used it is. It is just there in the middle of  the fog, in the night, alone in an empty car lot. The colors bleak white with light post blurred in the back with dark gray concrete and a black pushing cart in the center of the photo.

 

 

Revision

The night is still and you are in the middle of a parking lot. There is nothing in site, you look out into the lot and you see fog. Fog so thick that the only thing you can see is the lights in the lot in the background and a very lonesome cart. Positioned perfectly, centered is a cart with nothing in it. It looks eerie, one single cart in the middle of the lot surrounded by fog with no one in sight. Alone. The simplicity of the view and the hard contrast of the dark gray concrete and the misty cloud white fog make it seem unreal and unnerving.

 

Reflect on this activity

At first I thought I did a good job in describing the picture however, after watching the video I realized that I still managed to put my own input. For instance in the draft I start of by saying it is cold and wet, but I do not know that I am simply assuming based of  what I felt would be appropriate in the context of this photo. So in the revision I tried to still get the creepy feeling I got across while just describing what I see without my own personal input.

    Terrific work—and very smart revision, I think. To be clear, I still want your “input” (as you put it) but, as you point out in your reflection, I think you’ve done a smart job of making descriptive claims that you can strongly back up with visual evidence. Well done.
