Participating in the blog action day on Poverty "08

Here are some pictures of poverty here in the USA and elsewhere. I found a lot more but these were the ones that struck my heart when I first saw them and I hope they make us all aware of this huge problem we have. I am posting this a day early because knowing me and my brain I could forget to post it and I don't want to forget to post this.
The first one is a double shot
in California. I found it on flickr.

This is in texas where Ike struck

This really struck my heart and got my

attention right away.

I don't know where this was taken but as you can see

poverty doesn't just affect the young it affects everyone,

even this old man.

This is in TX also.

Hiking at the dreamy draw

my mom acting goofy
one lonely tree
I took this picture I think it's kinda cool the
more I look at it.

this is a park or school on the other side of the overpass

that we crossed.

This is the overpass that we walked on it was cool

being able to walk and see the cars on the highway

below us.

My mom sticking her face in my picture.
This is the trail that we took. Look at how far
my mom is boy she walks fast. My dad was way
behind me.

I actually like this picture. I know you can't see my mom's

face real good but I love how the light is shining

off the cattails.

This is another picture of the highway taken from the

overpass we were on.

we were walking right by the highway and I had to take

this picture of the flags. I like this picture.

Some Guidelines for taking pictures

I would like to share with you some guidelines I found out about taking better pictures of anything be it kids, animals, nature, etc.. My dad told me these and I was watching a TV show one morning and they had a professional photographer on and he said to do these things as well. These guidelines are:
  • Try and have the subject off centered.
  • Focus on the eyes when taking pictures of kids and animals.
  • Try to take pictures in the early morning or late in the afternoon. This is because early morning pictures have the best light and late in the afternoon the sun isn't so bright. I have learned to avoid taking pictures in the middle of the afternoon if I can.

I think that is all of the guidelines or suggestions that I can remember. If this helps anyone that's great because I am just learning all of this.
