Year in Photos





this picture was my favourite because it makes you take another look at the picture,
including the trees on the back

the event was a volcanic erruption in Muntilan, central Java, Indonesia
from Mount Merapi
the farmer is walking through the ash-covered cornfield
(Nov.8th, 2010)

the image perfectly documents the event because it shows how the crops were ruined by the erruption
and the farmer's devastated state
the palm trees in the back also shows the serious situation

the subject is the farmer, but I think that the subject is more of the crops
because that's the most important aspect of the people's lives

repitiion plays a huge role in the picture, and also the emphisis on the subject(farmer)
