An Image

What I think defines an image is not what the image is physically representing, but rather how it is interpreted. Anyone can percieve something as something else. A picture is worth much more than a thousand words and can have different meanings to everyone. But there are also images that, i think, are worth one word. If i saw a picture of a tree, i would say "that's a tree". Then there are people who try to pull meaning out of things were meaning is meant to be forgot, and simplicity rules. Though that is rarely the case in today's world, and i think many images do indeed have many complexities that i myself do not intend to sift through.

Your comments, while unarguably representative of your opinions, do not respond to the reading in any legible way - this could have easily been written without reading the article. While I'm looking for opinionated responses, they need to show more engagement with the material, as they are a primary way that I know whether the readings are in fact being read and processed by everyone.
