Week 34
Storytelling: Stranger
Tell the story of a stranger. Try using their environment to really inform the viewer of their story.
Story Telling: Good photographers can take beautiful images of something. Great photographers can take an image that tells its story. This category makes use of compositional rules and directed prompts to push you towards not just looking at the beauty of something, but to find a way to tell that something’s story.

These are men and women that I see almost every day while driving down Ogden Ave in Naperville, IL. This street is home to many of the car dealers like Toyota (these men were in front of the Toyota dealer), Nissan, Kia, etc. Nearly 2000 members of Automobile Mechanics Union Local 701 have been on strike since Aug. 1, affecting nearly 180 car dealerships in the Chicago area.
According to reports, the main sticking point in negotiations involves benefits for employees. According to the Chicago Tribune, a dispute over billable hours is also to blame, as mechanics say that they’re often working for free while they’re on the clock, because of manufacturer limits on the number of hours certain jobs take.
I see them out there with their children spouses/significant others and I have seen the support that motorist have shown these auto workers. Hopefully, they get what they want or at least close so they can go back to work and provide for their families.
