Definition of objective: Being the object or goal of ones efforts or actions with intentions to be accomplished.

Definition of subjective: Existing in the mind, belonging to thinking rather than the object of thought.

Subjective is interpreting with your own thoughts and opinions, and objective is pure facts.

An autobiography is objective and subjective because there is fact and interpretations people explain what they think about the person.

Photos can be objective and subjective because they capture your interpretation of the world and also the factual aspect of what is in the photograph.

What this sentence means to me is that in a photograph you choose to take a picture of one thing and isolate everything else which shows that the object you are taking a photo of has a sense of importance and significance, but at that same time that photo is an object which is a real thing.

Historians use photos as evidence to prove a point or to back up something that has been said. They also believe that photos are a reproduction of reality by taking a picture you can capture time and reality, and by doing that photos become objective artifacts.

You can bring life to images clear picture of reality and you can use images to support historical text

1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6)

What was going on during that time period? What was going on in the mind of the person taking the picture. What are the pros and cons of a photo being in black and White Do you get more out of a photo if there are more people in it or less How do effects change a persons perspective in a photo. What is the hidden meaning of the photo and why did the person take the photo.

The hidden narrative if this picture is the lifestyle and the way of life of the people in the image. It shows what life was like growing up in that time period. It also gives you a clear idea of the social classes and what kind of people where living in thoe type of neighborhoods in those times. His agenda was to expose the bad neighborhoods flaws,so to do that he made the picture worse then it really was.

Its a peice of the story but it is not the full truth, so we can not fully except a photo for what it is until we do some type of research.

**The Role of the Observer**
Part 1: Wait for verbal instructions for your pink slip Part 2: Write a 4 sentence reflection based on the pink slip activity, addressing **"Who Else is Hidden in the Picture? The role of the observer when trying to determine historical truth by analyzing primary source documents".** I belive that our perspective and interpretations are hidden in the picture. I feel that when we look at an image and interpret it we try our best to connect it to ourselves so thatwe can feel a sense of connection and purpose. Part 3: An Observer in Time The government has discovered a possible way for a person to actually go back in time to see for him/herself what actually occurred in history. They have to select the perfect candidate for this role. What would those qualifications be? || Consider... || Describe ideal || Explain Why ||
 * Gender || Female || Woman are more observant because when they see something they break it down ||
 * Background || Of any race ||  ||
 * Skills || pyschologist || Because they know how to talk to people and understand where their comming from ||
 * Interests || Reading books and interpreting different arts and historical artifacts || It makes you more intelligent and rich in culture. ||
 * Personal qualities/character || Pateint someone who takes their time || Because when you take time you can get a clear picture of ewhat you are observing ||
 * Other considerations: ||  ||   ||

There is clothes hanging on a clothes line in the background. The the street is very narrow. The photo is in black and white. the men in the photo are white men. seems like the a ghetto neighborhood. People in that neighborhood are poor. most of the men are wearing top hats. Caption: The life of people living in the ghetto. That this could actually be a rich neighborhood and the photographer wants you to think that they are poor. this was around the 1890's. That this was the life of every average person in that time period. The man in the photo with the bat could be a police officer. Caption: Just another day The reason it is called bandits roost because those people are criminals and that area in that time period was a place were people would get robbed if they were not careful. She wants us to see what it was like in that time period and what people had to deal with growing up in neighborhoods like that. He was known for his photography and his journalism. He was danish american and was also a social reformer. His art was influenced by his father, because his father was the one who pushed him so hard to do good at whatever he put his mind to "But they were equally revealing as documents that showed how outsiders often reacted in horror to people who composed “the other half.” The other half represents the unknown truth the side of life we have not been exposed to, what that proves is that in life there is a lot of things we don't know and for use to understand what it's like we have to visually see it.
