Details 

1. The last sentence of the story says
"I believe that more and more, we are defining our environments not as the spaces themselves, in terms of the buildings or architecture, but rather by the objects and devices that we buy and surround ourselves with. ... I would like that message to carry through universally," Seymour said.

What do you think about this statement?
I believe that this sentence is very deep and can be taken in different ways. 
Do you agree or disagree?
I myself agree. but i believe that other people might not agree its all depends on how they view objects.
As an aspiring photographer how does this make you feel about your photography?
It makes photography mean so much more making it more important. To remember the memories of what you see. It makes it more meaningful and powerful.
2. When you looked through the images, did you want to visit this place and take your camera?
Definetely
3. What do you think it would be like to be the child of someone who worked at this place?
It would be so much fun. Especially if you own a camera. 
4. Describe your favorite photo to me.
My favorite photo was of a flower shop. A woman is sitting in the background I'm pretty sure she's the lady that owns the place. Its so beautiful and it would be great to work in some place like that. I absolutely love flowers and so i really like this picture most of all because of that.

Warm Up

1. What is your favorite photo? Either describe it, or figure out a way to post it on your blog.
My favorite picture is probably the one with the reindeer. The picture consists of a large reindeer taking up the majority of the space. And in the back ground is a large mountain range. The picture is fully balanced and its really majestic looking. And its pretty personal also. Because my nickname is Reno which is spanish for reindeer.

2. Does it seem like all of these images could have been taken with a phone?
Not at all. These images look to well taken for it to have been taken with a phone.

3. How much do you think the apps some of the photographers used impacted the image?
It made them look more professional, cleaner, clearer. And under some circumstances it may have even improved lighting. 

4. List two tips you think might help your own photography with a phone.
Some editing apps couldn't hurt. And well maybe trying to use some rules of photography to make it easier to focus on one image.
