Each of you will post one photograph with one writing prompt this term. You should respond to a minimum of five of these blog posts with an organized short essay before the end of the term. Please make sure each post has a few responses.
Here is a sample post:
Take a look at this photograph of Blake Miller, a US Marine lance corporal, returned to his boyhood Kentucky home after being honorably discharged from the military, following a tour of duty in Iraq. Now home, Miller attempts to get his life back on track and marries his high school sweetheart Jessica. (http://bop.nppa.org/2007/still_photography/winners). Analyze the picture and offer your opinion about what the photographer hoped to capture. Consider all elements of the photograph: his haircut, the cigarette, the background, the wedding veil. What argument might you create to serve as a caption for this photograph?
