Inventions from modern technology are the keys to keep memories and past times alive. The camera exemplifies this concept perfectly since cameras give us the ability to relive precious moments. In spring of 2012, my parents, my siblings, and I went on a trip to the tropical islands of Hawaii. On crisp cool thursday night we decided to go to a luau. The weather and the setting of the luau could not have been any better. At the luau the hotel provided a professional photographer for family portraits. After waiting in line for what felt like forever, we were up next to take our picture. Every morning I walk by the picture hanging in our breakfast room and I look back and admire our difference in appearance, choice of accessories and clothing, …show more content…
After sitting restlessly for four and a half hours waiting for the airplane to land I took a nice long glare out my window. As I admired the beauty of the crystal clear ocean I noticed a family of whales leaping in and out of the water. The moment I saw those whales I knew the trip was going to be great. After a full day of travel we decided to just relax by the pool for the remainder of the day. The next day we swam in the ocean all day, we snorkeled, fished, and surfed until the sun began to set. On our walk back to the hotel out of the corner of my eye I noticed a sign advertising the annual hotel luau. My siblings and I have always wanted to go to a Luau so we all begged our parents to take us. An hour or so later we were all changed and ready to go to our first luau. As we walked into the luau cameras flashed at us from all directions. With the feeling of a movie star I confidently walked towards our table. Out of nowhere a man stopped my family to try to persuade us to take a family photo. The setting was perfect, swaying palm trees, the crystal clear beach, and choppy waters, all the known and loved features of Hawaii. After only five or six tries the famous breakfast room family picture was taken. Immediately after we took our photo we hustled to pay the photographer so we can go enjoy the show and dinner. Thanks to our iconic family portrait I can relive this fantastic family vacation each and every
I smiled to myself and decided that I would go join in. With that, I took a huge deep breath and jumped into the salty water. The water was cool and refreshing; I felt it slide through my hair making it sway in the water. I swam deeper and deeper into the deep blue water. Sunlight streamed through it, lighting up the water around me turning it to gold. I kicked harder and I felt my muscles surge with strength and I pushed further. My lunges began to burn for the need of oxygen, but I refused to go up. I repeatedly told myself just a little bit longer. Until I was unable to proceed anymore without more air in my lungs, I swam to the top of the water taking a huge breaths, filling my lungs with air. I could then taste the salty water as it ran down my face and dripped over my lips. Just then I thought, I will never forget this moment, this place, or the experiences I felt while visiting
Bobby had found a new passion in photography. To progress his hobby, he would set photo shoots of weddings and soon, Sue was joining him in the events. Through all their creative and energetic efforts, Bobby and Sue became the most sought
Most people experience dramatic events that demonstrate to them just how fragile life is. Whether these events are acts of gruesome violence, or deaths of a loved ones, the frailty of life is evident. However, for me, this was a different story. As a southern white-boy, my realization came in the most unexpected of places – the Hawaiian Islands. When I learned of a snorkeling trip mid-vacation, I was overcome with anticipation and couldn’t wait to embark on my “Pacific Pilgrimage.” This vacation would prove to be a dramatic turning point in my life.
I expected Hawaii to be a land of good fortune since people who moved to Hawaii always sent money to loved ones. I also expected to get a lot of money faster and easier but those expectations were crushed by reality since I only get paid $4 a month which isn’t as much as I was hoping for. I have to wake up at 5:00 AM to start working on the plantations, I eat lunch at 11:00 AM, and I go to sleep at 8:00 PM. I was provided with free housing and medicine by the estate owner. The men lived in dorm housing if they were single and the room I was in wasn’t the best but it had a bed with a pillow, one window in the back of the room, and a table with one chair. On my time off, I would gamble and talk about stories with others.
This past summer, my family and I went on a cruise to the Bahamas. We had just docked at the second port, Nassau, and were preparing to exit the gigantic ship named the Carnival Fantasy. Once we got to the city, I noticed it was bustling with people of all different backgrounds and cultures. The roads were narrow and some even hilly. I remember coming to the conclusion that a lot of people in the Bahamas must have road rage what from the blaring car horns I could hear around every corner. My family and I were walking along the sidewalk, glancing into shops as we passed them. The weather was unbearably hot, but growing up in South Carolina allowed my family and I to push onward with our adventure. The sun burn on my back started to pulsate in pain any time the sunlight hit it, so we decided to stick to the side of the buildings that provided shade.
Photographs serve as a record of what we have accomplished, where we have traveled and who was there along the way. A significant mechanism in photography is tourists , to which I
I loved trying catch an amazing moment where you can tell so man things are happening just in one second and take it. So my one dream was to take the perfect picture. Where you can see some many different levels of people doing there things as poor people through the rich people. But its not easy trying to find a place like that here in a simple town in Mississippi, so i packed my bags and headed to New York for this one picture that would take who knows whole long to find the moment.
A trip to Hawaii The summer vacations were coming and me and my colleague Billy were literally exhausted with the work and due to some important assignments we had cancelled our vacations last year and were badly in need of a time out. We had discussed to have a trip to Hawaii from a very long time and this summer I had it and we actually pack our bags and went on. The trip to Hawaii was a wonderful experience, we had a plane ride and what I liked the most was the views and sights we get to saw. We hired a rental car from the airport and went on to the Starwood Hawaii hotel where we had our reservations when we arrived at the hotel it was almost 7 in the evening. The hotel was no doubt very beautiful and the rooms were luxurious as well. We unpacked our bags and went on to sleep. The next day we decided that we should make an action plan to visit places where we want to go, the first place on our list was Big Island, I like to swim a lot that’s why we went to Hapuna Beach Park and believe me it is the best place to go if you are a swimming lover. They have a nice white sand beach,...
It was the hot humid day when I got off the airplane from South Korea to John F. Kennedy Airport in New York. As soon as I entered New York airport, it was a new transition to my life. I can still remember those special moments at the airport that reminds me of the image of New York. You might think it is weird to choose a photograph of John F. Kennedy Airport that represents the image of New York and essential to me. However, it is a personal place that reminds me of New York.
I have many places i would want to go but Hawaii and Paris but if i had to chose one i would Hawaii. Hawaii has great views, great water, and great food. Hawaii is one of my many places to go to but is my favorite place i would want to go to. The views at Hawaii is the best.
As this person walks down the road, they see a deer with her two fawns. The moment is absolutely beautiful! Moments like this happen only once in a great while, making us want to stay in the particular moment forever. Unfortunately, time moves on, but only if there is some way to capture the day’s magnificence. Thanks to Joseph Niépce, we can now capture these moments and others that take our breath away.
Immediately upon having the opportunity to go to whatever place I want to go out of the whole world I will choose Hawaii. In Hawaii, there are so many activities to enjoy while staying there and I desire to explore those options. By exploring all these options I will be going to all of the islands who create the whole place of Hawaii to not miss a single attraction or activity.
As I grew up I never ceased to work on my photography skills. Every time I went camping, before I packed a sleeping bag or
Photojournalism plays a critical role in the way we capture and understand the reality of a particular moment in time. As a way of documenting history, the ability to create meaning through images contributes to a transparent media through exacting the truth of a moment. By capturing the surreal world and presenting it in a narrative that is relatable to its audience, allows the image to create a fair and accurate representation of reality.
Throughout someone’s life they will go to many places with their family, friends, another relatives. I have been on a few vacations that have made a lasting impact on my life. But one of the most memorable vacations I have experienced was with my cousins. I went to goa beach. Most of you probably don’t know about that beach but it is a very famous one in south India. I enjoyed myself to the fullest. The beach environment was enlightening. I would not have wanted to take this trip with anyone other than my cousins. We had a great time on the ocean sands and swimming in the ocean everyday made this vacation unforgettable.
