This exercise is interesting as this is something that i use near enough everyday, as a young woman i am active on social media platforms such as facebook, instagram and snapchat and a feature on all of these platforms is adding text to images you have taken. From adding the location, time and even the weather! to tagging other people in the photograph who also have that form of social media. It’s a very modern from of communication to the outside world for example i have used a photo of me and one of my friends below to wish them a happy birthday placing the text onto an old photograph and tagging said individual see some examples below.
So instead of using photo editing software i will be using the Instagram story feature to add photo’s, text, filters, locations etc. to family images and seeing what i can come up with.
To do this exercise again would be different as obviously we are all a lot older and my dad is no longer with us, so like above i have tagged josh in my mum’s belly as that’s where he was! now i would have to tag my dad somewhere else some would say in heaven i would say otherwise. These were all taken at different locations as well one being a family home we no longer live in and another being a family wedding. Something’s you cannot simply recreate with photo’s especially as time changes things one day i will have family photo’s similar to this but not the same.
