Sensory Overload

What do you think about this statement?
I agree with this statement because people are caught with how much they have and not how all of the stuff came up to be. For example they love their possessions, but don't recognize how blessed they are to be under a roof. I think that this expands the boundaries when it comes photography.

2. Yes I did want to visit these places because they seem fun and exciting as a photographer.

3. I think it would be hard, but also fun because there are a lot of things. The reason it would be hard is because your parents don't have time to pay attention to you.

My favorite photo would be the store with a lot santa claus's hanging around the store because it gives a lot of pop when it comes to color and attention.
