In Time's article,they recognize a photographer who goes farther than just snapping the shot. Photographer Keith Goldstein snaps photos of people visiting the 9/11 memorial and all of the photos taken convey a different message or emotion, which is what makes each photo unique. In memorial to 9/11 happening thirteen years ago today, Goldstein wanted to compile photos of people's emotions when going to the 9/11 memorial and admiring where the World Trade Centers stood. The pictures indicated that even though every person was looking at the same thing, each and every person's reaction was different-some showed grief and despair while others showed happiness and hope.
In our class, we relate older writing pieces to the modern world. In each story, the author utilizes his/her own voice in their writing. Just as the authors use their voice to highlight their own opinion, Goldstein uses his abilities and candidness to capture all emotions of a human at one sight. Goldstein focuses on making the people in the picture stand out, rather than just the picture itself. By using a voice in writing or art pieces, authors and photographers are engaging the reader or observer with their intriguing opinion.
