Obama Pictures

Photo 1:

This photograph is heavy on implications. It seems very much like Obama and his team are on top of things and proactive. It shows that if Obama isn't worried, you shouldn't be either. This photo is very positive on the plans Obama has in store to clean up the oil spill and fix the problem. The questions this photo results in are posititve ones: will this be done quickly? Is this not a big deal like everyone thinks? Will everything really be ok?

Photo 2:



This photograph, like the first, says a lot. Although, unlike the first photograph, the message is negative. Obama looks worried and concerned. It makes you think Obama is not convinced his plans will work. The downcast eyebrows makes him look very afraid that disappointment is inevitable. He is also hunched foward as if it the pressure on him is wearing his down mentally and physically, which puts doubt in his ablitites. The questions this photograph raises are negative: How long will this take? What is the real impact on the American people? Can this even be fixed?

Photo 1 clearly gives more confidence in the President's abilities. He looks very confident and head strong, where in the 2nd picture he looks unsure and exhausted. Photo 1 makes the reader believe in Obama and have faith that his efforts will prove successful. Photo 2 makes the reader feel Obama himself is doubtful that his plans will work.
