Life is life and it is so hard to realize that millions of lives can be in the hands of one single person.
A few days ago i went through my biggest "box of memories". It is nothing special, just a shoebox filled with little things (like tiny notebooks, CDs, floppy disks, pins, buttons, name tags, beer caps, etc). Each of these has a shorter or longer story behind it. This post is going to be about a CD that I have from my photography class that I took at the School of the Photographic Arts: Ottawa, the class was called "Youth Perspective". The CD was given to each of the students by the teacher. In there are pictures that changed the world, or pictures that teach a good lesson, or pictures that teach tips and tricks about photography. There is a Power Point presentation that teaches that Plastic Bags are bad and damage the world. There also were a few songs, and also a few links that either teach photography, or have some amazing photographies, or are simply good, there is other stuff too, but I haven't got to that yet. I needed to share this with You!
What I did was I marked all the files in there and pressed "open". Of course the computer was a little upset that it needed to open 74 items all at once, and so was I, but we got through it. At start it launched the Power Point presentation. Pretty impressive, quotes, and, of course, images. Powerful. Then i begun going through the links that opened up. Ok, i'll just add a list of them here. (Not all, since some were NOT FOUND)
- New Internationalist
- New Internationalist - A photographer's code
- Guidelines for Better Photographic Composition
- Edward Burtynsky - Photographic Works
- Photo Composition Articles - Guidelines for Better Photographic Composition
- Itchy Animation - Digital paint - LIGHT
- Amazonas Images
- Adbusters
- Lauren Greenfield - Photography
- Rabble.ca
These are in no order, but You should be able to tell which one is a teaching site and which one is a COOL site to look at (they all are but anyway..).
The one in bold is where i found a video. This video is really heart wrenching and I feel like I need to share with it. Everyone in the world should see this video. (It is a flagged video, so You have to be 18+ to view it, just saying)
It is painful to watch and personally makes me extremely mad!
Referring to the title, it comes to the fact that our lives depend on so much that i start to have a better view on people who believe in a higher power. I don't want to fall there. So I say as long as I have some control over what I do, I will do what ever I can to make this world a better place.
Thank You!
