Photo #1
Carefree © Nordica D Lindgren
Young, carefree, innocent You sing, laugh and dance Taking in all Gods' glory At every single chance.
Grown up You ignore the wonders that you cherished as a child Gone is the carefree, honesty and mild.
You walk around with blinders on, Into the race of money and greed. Not caring who gets hurt Just to fulfill your selfish needs.
Stepping over the line of morals to have wealth and material things Ignoring all Gods gifts Like the first rain in Spring
Keep that little child inside! Hold her close to your heart, We're only here for a brief time Then with this world, we must part
For a moment each day It's OK to get silly to laugh and dance. Take in all Gods glory At every single chance.

Favorite Line - You sing you laugh and you dance

Narrative Photo

This photograph was taken during the progressive era during the early 20th century by muckrakers. Their job was to photograph the muck of society and expose it. In this photograph we can see their are two man that were lynched. By the white faces we can see, we can estimate that the photograph was probably taken with flash. Also by the white flash of the lamp post we could tell that it was night time. This photograph caught my attention because of the characters being lynched and by the facial expression of the man that were portrait in this photograph, they seemed surprise.
