Blog Post #9

The link to picture because there's some very obnoxious html and css script that won't allow me to rip the picture from the website.

Lense: Political, Communism

Within the photo by David Seymour we have a soldier that's looking away from the rest of his fellow soldiers while under a communist flag. Due to the general idea of  Communism regarding all men being created equal and being the same, here we have one soldier looking away from the rest of the group. With a political lense of pro capitalism or anti communism it can be seen as an unhappy soldier stuck within the gears of the red tide known as Communism. He's suspected to act and be like everyone yet he's looking away from the rest of the group as if apathetically asking for help or yearning to be his own man. The background of the photo has an officer that's staring at the camera man too as if disgruntled that he's taking a photo of his group or that one of his soldiers isn't following everyone else. The picture overall almost looks like a man wanting out of the Communist regime and to be himself with his own freedom.
