Photo Description

Description picture 3:



In the third picture as you can see many people are protesting against the film " The Last Temptation of Christ". A person has a sign saying " Don't destroy history ", this person says this because the people want to ban the film for the controversial subject matter and is labeled as blasphemous. Other person said in a sign "Offensive to Christians" maybe the people said this because many countries and the Bible are against of what they are showing because said things of Jesus that are not really and the Bible has banned, the Bible doesn't accept this because this is a bibliography of Jesus. These people are protesting outside maybe of an important cinema and their proposal is that the film doesn't begin. These film show things like the crucified of Jesus and a posible wedding of him. This is the most important reason of the anger of the people and the world.

TATTOOS-WORK
 
 
a. What is the key issue that the photo shows?

The key issue in this photo is that the tattoos can mae the difference in life's people, in the photo explain that in the daily lives he can use the tattoo normal and walk like a normal person. But he need to transform her life in the job need to hide the tattoo to work undisturbed to avoid being dismissed.


b. How are tattoos stereotyped in different societies? Refer to The Maori culture (New Zealand), USA and Chile.

The Maori tribe in New Zealand used the tattoos to scare the enemy and in signal of respect,the person that have more tattos it means that have more experience than the other of his culture,they start tattoing the childrens at 8 years old and they modified, as you have more experience and more power in the tribe. Refer to Chile the tattoos mean a lot in life of the people, which affects their day to day, because here are very racist and someone to have some tattoo related will be poor or to belong to lower social classes.

c. How important or relevant are tattoos for some people in defining their individuality or identity?

For some people the tattoos refer to a identity for some social class, ethnic groups or musical groups. For instance people who listen music like rap or hip hop it is necessary to have a tattoo or do graffitis or something that is traditional  for the group. Otherwise if people not do this things can lead to expulsion.


d. Why are tattoos considered / not considered Art?

Art is a way of expressing your feelings, and tattoos are considered art, because it express what you feel, it is a way of expressing feelings.But there are cases in which a tattoo is used for different purposes, such as to identify prisoners in the prisons, or to identify football teams, in this case, a tattoo we could not consider it art.

In conclusion the photo shows the differences that people have to do having a tattoo, like stop being like them to become other people and go undetected tattoos in his job or place that not allow tattoos.

Here is a photo probably taken on the street where a family is walking. First I talk about the location, the father is on the left-hand side, the kids are in the middle and the mother is on the right-hand side. As I said before the place is on the street. In relation with the description of the people the kids seem to be 6 years old,with warm clothes, because they may be in winter time, regarding the parents they seems to be in a relationship  and they look very old. The parents may be walking on the street to go their kids school.The impression of the photo is that the family looks like a happy family with many kids and a lot of communication. This photograph is connected to costums and traditions, because it is a tradition that parents take their children to school.

Tattoos go beyond art and fashion; they reflect deep-rooted cultural and ethnic heritage.

 I agree with the motion tattoos go beyond art and fashion; they reflect deep-rooted cultural and ethnic heritage.

Most people who have tattoos will say that they got it for a specific time or person in their lives that they will never forget. Others say that they feel more adventurous and don’t really have a specific reason for getting their tattoo. For some people, tattoos make them feel different from other people, some people say it is art.
It is a way of expressing yourself and what you want. You can just put it right there on your body for what you are interested in. It shows who you are to have a tattoo there. The tattoo can be like a little advertisement on your body for what you are about. The tattoo looks cool after all, or one hopes, maybe people will think then that they are cool.

Tattoos are only for art and not for culture because the persons die and the tattoo dissapear with the body and there finish the History. The tattoo represent and expression of affection of that art like when you are in love and tattoos the name of the girlfriend, so it no go more away that an image art an not like a important history tattoo, we can conclude that is more for fashion.

For example the Maori tribe in New Zealand used the tattos to scare the enemy and in signal of respect,the person that have more tattos it means that have more experience than the other of his culture,they start tattoing the childrens at 8 years old and they modified, as you have more experience and more power in the tribe.

In conclusion, the tattoo represents not only a beautiful figure and nice words, but behind each one there's a story and a life that the person wearing it to be happy.

Dear Diary,


Today my host family gave me a big surprise, we celebrated my 16th birthday in a special and  loving way while touring Jamaica.

In the day my host family had a surprise in mind that consisted in playing reggae music in our house. Then covered me in flour that is a principal tradition in my new city. We sang a karaoke with reggae music like Bob Marley and another  popular singers in Jamaica. After that, the bell rang and I was excited to open the door when I opened it I saw mi parents that travel from Chile to my new city, Jamaica. They brought the cake and we sang the song Miss lou together.

At night we dance so much,so we got tired and went to sleep because we have to travel to Chile tomorrow.

Goodbye diary
