Hey Sammie! Great presentation; I really enjoyed it, and sorry about hearing you're sick :( That's no fun.
As for your video, first, I loved the editing! You did a great job keeping my attention with the changing visuals alone! Second, I like that you gave the exact locations, dates, and even the technical process behind each shot (the three days rigging GoPro cameras, the leaf-covered treetop hide), which really shows how much intention goes into "ethically evaluative" photography. That level of detail also ties directly into Chapter 4, since Barrett talks about how this genre works by building a case through evidence and context, not just a striking image on its own. Overall, amazing work! and you may have opened my eyes to a new favorite photographer! Hope you feel better!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-4jGlI__z4 Hi! I really enjoyed your presentation as it was a photographer I had never heard of. I really liked her work and your presentation was clear and very easy to understand. Your presentation does a good job of tying everything back to chapter 4 of the reading, and shows you understand how to interpret photos in your own way as well. I really liked the Battlefield photo and wish you went into more depth with it. Learning about her made me a lot of dark emotions, but also taught me how much emotion can be created by just looking at a photo even without context. Great job overall!
