 PURPOSES OF PHOTOGRAPHY BLOG POST 

Your task: Demonstrate your understanding of the purposes of photography by blogging about each: a control, an inform, an advertise, an educate and an entertain. Find 2 examples for each purpose and explain why each image is a good example of that purpose. Your blog post will have a total of 10 images, several sentences for one image/category and a citation to the website you found the image on. 

Ms. Tonkin's Example:


























I found this image at http://atlengthmag.com/photography/mario-tama/ which is an image used in an online news article reporting on Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It is a great example of how photography is used to inform the public.  The photographer captures the flooding and electrical fires caused by Hurricane Katrina while using the main subject of a local person displaced by the tragedy.
