Blog #21
Nick and Gatsby are detached from their surroundings. I believe it is in fact that they feel they do not belong. They are human yes, but feel as though they have traits that set them apart from everyone else. Nick, feels he is the only honest one he knows anymore. Even Gatsby has something to hide from him. Gatsby had a tragedy in the family and does not like to be close to people or share said tragedy with others, But he trusts Nick with this secret.

Blog #19 Professional example
It looks like a common picture found from the Ocean Beach area and something someone from Ocean Beach would produce.
That the beach is a relaxed place and can help ease your mind.
All surfers, beach goers, or photographers.
Man standing in the sand with a surf board waiting for the waves to crash in with the sunset in the back.
Rule of thirds and lighting, It captures the true feelings of the picture well, and these techniques turn a common picture into an excellent picture like this.
It relates to our project and my site where I will be researching.

Blog 16 MSB!
From Dani's blog I read that she was going to take old pictures from Sunset Cliffs and then take new ones herself of the same area and compare them. It's a great idea and I think it would be able to get a great message across if I were to choose a photo essay.

From Hallie's blog she mentioned something about the pollution having any effect on animals in the ocean. She mentioned whales and how she would go whale watching. That is a great idea. Observing an animal in their habitat would be an excellent way to see if they are effected in their day to day habits.

While reading Deejay's Blog, I thought to myself. "I could literally ask the people at the beaches what they think of the beach, and if they would still come if they knew it was dirty, or if it got dirtier."

I am interested in either a documentary that addresses the question "How does the pollution effect the public's opinion?"
I am also interested in a photo documentation that addresses the question as well. I will base my video off of Jessica Matthews video. I really liked the interviews and then the facts in between. http://mediasavesthebeach.org/ "Jessica Matthews."

How does Pollution effect the public's opinion?
If so, Why does it effect their opinion? What if the situation isn't as bad as they think? What would happen if all of the public's opinion was negative?

Blog # 13
"In a striking change of direction, the California Coastal Commission yesterday voted 8-4 to give San Diego its third exemption from pollution standards set by federal Clean Water Act."
San Diego is getting its third exemption from standards that every other city in California has to meet, It will take $1.5 billion to retrofit the treatment plant to meet these standards.
There is no information on what happens to the wastewater after it gets into the ocean. There are no statistics or visual confirmations.
I would get facts about the size of the contaminated area (if it is even able to be tested) and also write about what the contract was that will make the city come back in two years for a check-up.

Blog 11: Media Saves The Beach
Why haven't a lot of sharks shown up around the Children's Pool? Just interesting to me that I've heard no shark sightings around an area so intensely filled with their food.
How does human interaction effect Mission Bay? I heard about the alcohol beach ban loophole, and how a bunch of people drank literally on the water. I was wondering what happened to all the trash that fell off their boats and if it effected it at all.
How does pollution effect the public's opinion? This is just all around interesting. If a beach is dirty will someone still go to it? what if it has a reputation for being dirty? and vice versa.
