For my "peace" image i immediately thought of one of my good friends tattoos. A peace symbol on her wrist. Ive always loved that tattoo and what it represented to her. I wanted to show what peace ment to the two of us. When i think peace i think earth, poverty, the environment, anti-war, and simplicity. To express these concepts i went to a location with earthy tones, i also shot close to the ground to create a feeling of being grounded. I thought about having her face in the photograph but i thought i would be stronger without, it would show more the feeling of the image rather then concentrate on the expression of her face. I wanted the photograph to be earthy and simple. I used depth to emphasize the feeling of a large space (or world) that has the potential to be peaceful.
