and this is the aftermath of a people watching a film at the local cinema
I think I need to try to portray people's personalities in my photos. I mean that was my original plan. But yeah my original concentration was going to be able to show things about people in the photos, like you'd be able get an idea about the person from looking at the photos without looking or knowing the person. and I am still working on that. I guess now I am just going for scenes. scenes that show that there once was a presence in the room.

Sachsenhausen concentration camp, located around 22 miles (35 km) north of Berlin, was opened by the Nazi government in 1936 and was used to hold various types of people deemed undesireable, from political prisoners to jews, homosexuals, prisoners of war, as well as actual criminals. It illustrates the perverse mindset of Nazis that a rapist or murderer would in fact be placed at the top of the hierarchy within the camp, with communists, homosexuals and jews below, in that order. Though designed as an extermination camp, large numbers of executions took place here and gas chambers were later installed. Atrocious treatment and abuse of prisoners was common, and upon the capture of the camp by the Soviet Army in 1945, 30,000 lives would have been claimed, mostly Soviet prisoners of war. In the nine years of Nazi administration, 200,000 people passed through the camp. Sadly, the horrors did not end with the fall of the Nazis...
Upon its capture by the Soviet Army in 1945, the camp was re-established as NKVD special camp Number 7, and held Nazi figures as well as officers of the German army and political prisoners. 60,000 people would be imprisoned between 1945 and 1950, when the camp finally closed. Of those, 12,000 would perish due to disease and starvation, showing that astoundingly, the Soviets ran the camp with even less care than the Nazi goverment had in the years before.
During quarantine, people sharing food amongst each other is a big factor, but staying safe while doing so is also important. Using the blue gloves and tubber ware lid contrasts with the house in the background bringing focus to the subject. Also using the fence as leading lines to bring focus to the subject.
Auschwitz concentration camp (German: Konzentrationslager Auschwitz, also KZ Auschwitz) was a network of German Nazi concentration camps and extermination camps built and operated by the Third Reich in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany during World War II. It consisted of Auschwitz I (the original camp), Auschwitz II–Birkenau (a combination concentration/extermination camp), Auschwitz III–Monowitz (a labor camp to staff an IG Farben factory), and 45 satellite camps.
Auschwitz I was first constructed to hold Polish political prisoners, who began to arrive in May 1940. The first extermination of prisoners took place in September 1941, and Auschwitz II–Birkenau went on to become a major site of the Nazi "Final Solution to the Jewish question". From early 1942 until late 1944, transport trains delivered Jews to the camp's gas chambers from all over German-occupied Europe, where they were killed with the pesticide Zyklon B. At least 1.1 million prisoners died at Auschwitz, around 90 percent of them Jewish; approximately 1 in 6 Jews killed in the Holocaust died at the camp. Others deported to Auschwitz included 150,000 Poles, 23,000 Romani and Sinti, 15,000 Soviet prisoners of war, 400 Jehovah's Witnesses, and tens of thousands of others of diverse nationalities, including an unknown number of homosexuals. Many of those not killed in the gas chambers died of starvation, forced labor, infectious diseases, individual executions, and medical experiments.
In the course of the war, the camp was staffed by 7,000 members of the German Schutzstaffel (SS), approximately 12 percent of whom were later convicted of war crimes. Some, including camp commandant Rudolf Höss, were executed. The Allied Powers refused to believe early reports of the atrocities at the camp, and their failure to bomb the camp or its railways remains controversial. One hundred forty-four prisoners are known to have escaped from Auschwitz successfully, and on October 7, 1944, two Sonderkommando units—prisoners assigned to staff the gas chambers—launched a brief, unsuccessful uprising.
As Soviet troops approached Auschwitz in January 1945, most of its population was evacuated and sent on a death march. The prisoners remaining at the camp were liberated on January 27, 1945, a day now commemorated as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. In the following decades, survivors, such as Primo Levi, Viktor Frankl, and Elie Wiesel, wrote memoirs of their experiences in Auschwitz, and the camp became a dominant symbol of the Holocaust. In 1947, Poland founded a museum on the site of Auschwitz I and II, and in 1979, it was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Auschwitz concentration camp was a complex of more than 40 Nazi concentration camps and extermination camps built and operated by Nazi Germany in occupied Poland during World War II and the Holocaust. It consisted of Auschwitz I, the main camp and administrative headquarters in Oświęcim; Auschwitz II–Birkenau, a combined concentration and extermination camp three kilometers away in Brzezinka; Auschwitz III–Monowitz, a labor camp seven kilometers from Auschwitz I set up to staff an IG Farben synthetic-rubber factory; and dozens of other subcamps.

A photo of a beautiful Great Gray Owl from my archives, taken on 25 June 2012, on a drive NW of Calgary. They have tremendous concentration, barely taking their tiny eyes off the ground when they are in hunting mode.
"The owl has been called a wise bird for the same reason that some men are thought to be wise — he looks wise. One reason he looks so steadily at you that you think he is studying you is because the light is so strong in the daytime that his sight is bad. But the owl is not as wise as he is said to be." From www.birdnature.com/feb1899/owls.html
"In ancient Greece, owls were associated with Athena, the goddess of wisdom. She was thought to be accompanied by one at all times, and owls eventually gained their own reputation based on their connection with the goddess a myth that continues to this day. There is also the common belief that owls simply "look" smart! Unlike most birds, owl eyes are placed on the front of their heads (versus on the sides) to help them focus on prey when hunting. This wide-eyed glance gives them the impression of thinking really hard when, in reality, they are most likely just thinking about their next meal!"

In dachau concentration camp. It was so eerie, you could almost hear the SS officers boots clicking down these halls of dark history

Concentration. I took the style of the owl drawing but did this silhouette of a hand instead and added the tribal, geometric Aztec shapes on the figure. I didnt center the figure because most of the concentration ideas are centered. I changed it up and put the figure on the left bottom korner. I Added in geometric shapes and triangles in the back because it was way to empty without any kind of background. I'm not sure if i should keep creating pieces similar to this and the owl or the girl figure will the tones of light purples and blues.

so cool to watch these birds search and find the food of their choice, even to the smallest things, like salmon eggs

In this photo the design principle is unity. The concept of this photo was also part of my concentration, I wanted to create a photo that had glitter being thrown in the image but also placed on the model. The difficulties in this photo were capturing the glitter without it being too much covering the image. I did re-shoot this and do simple editing.

Micron. 9x12 this is a tattoo design.
The summers and breaks I spent with my uncle and my cousin were my inspiration for this. Watching NASCAR with her an my uncle and swimming in the pool were my favorite things to do. such silly things were over looked and now looking back they were the best times ever. To think I took those times for granted kill me. My uncle was one of the kindest people you could ever meet, am example id he would starve before daring to think about not giving his food to someone who needed it. He loved me and my cousin more then anything. Both of us, growing up with out dads, looked up to him and he knew that. Before his passing I spent the whole summer with him not leaving his side for a good 2 full months. Going with him to his hospital visits for his cancer, they gave us hope. They told him he was getting better and then I left his house for 3 days to go sleep over a friends house and when I came back he had horrible news... His cancer was not in his neck anymore but it was everywhere else... He didn't want me there anymore he wanted me to remember only the good times and not him in his death bed. So that being said I left his house, school started, he went into acoma and passed away...( I made this to show the love both my cousin and I have for my uncle. That is what connects it to my concentration.. )
