My photographic eye: The people I love!
















Sports is a culture because...


Sports is a culture in many ways. From football to soccer sports has grown into a whole new culture and environment that billions of people across the world are a part of. People who are involved in the sports world have a certain mindset, belief, and attitude towards their particular sport of interest. It may be the need to change a rule, or the regulation of performance-inhancing substances. People who are truly interested in sports are totally committed to it. From watching football all day Saturaday to going to a football game when its minus thirty degrees.

Human Behavior

Human Behavior is the collection of actions and behavior exhibited by human beings. Behavior is influences by emotions, beliefs,cultures, and everything around us. To the left is photograph of Times Square in New York City. I choose this photo as a representation of human behavior because it symbolizes the world around us. Everything imaginable in the world influences humans in way we realize and ways we don't. From the media, friends, and everyday living we are in constant evolution as a result of a constantly changing environment. Whether it be good or bad our behavior is predicated on influences from New York City, like this photo, to Hong Kong, and across the world.

Human Nature

Human nature is humans natural inclinations to the things and the world around them. When searching for a piece of art that best embraces this concept of human nature, this painting to the right stuck out immediately. This picture shows how human will always be innovative, creative, explore, and conquer the world around them. This picture shows how through our imaginations we will make the best of our situations and plight.

Human Condition: Art Form

The human condition steadily grows worsens everyday. People are starving in Africa, people are dying in ghettos in all cities, and corruption infest governments across the globe. Something has to be done to right these many wrongs in the world. Something has to be done to feed the children, clean the ghettos, and right the governments oppressing their constituents. Where has the love for fellow men gone? Are we that so insensitive to let these atrocities thrive in a world with abundant resources and food? The human condition has been better and the only way its going to change is by individual committing themselves to the cause. Though only a picture it shows the human condition in its most elemental form. Hungry, starving children are just an inexcusable plight.

Artist In Society

Some of the under-appreciated, and under-recognized people in society, ironically are some of the most brightest and talented individuals. Artist have a weird and unique role in society. Artist have so much to contribute and give to the world around them if only they have the avenues to foster their creations. Artist constantly struggle with finding financial backing, studio time, and places to showcase their work. If only we as fellow inhabitants would just see all the priceless, and timeless artworks that never reach their full potential. The day when artist talented works, meets a world hungry for quality art will be the day when artist take their rightful place as elite individuals in society.

Dance

Dance is one of the various art form that we as humans use to express ourselves. It takes a lot of talent, time, coordination, and years of training to perfect this skill. It truly requires a gifted mind, an artist, to handle the level of difficulty in dancing. Only an artist can create such inspiring and innovative choreography that awes crowds and pleases audiences around the world. Dance connect with the mind not through sound like music of literature but through body movements and gestures. This awesome aspect of dance makes it unique to the art world. From cool dancers on you tube to the world class dancers of Julliard everyone can relate to dance. It has been around since ancient times with things such as tribal rain dances to now with the ever evolving dance seen. Dance is one the essential components of the awesome art world.
