Wilderness, near Chancellorsville, VA

Describe: 

This photograph shows us a  wilderness near Chancellorsville. There are lot of dead trees and dead leaves. Withered branches looks very mussy.  This is a shore of the lake. There are some dead trees lay on the lake. Two people are on the center of the lake. They seem like want to find something and staring at the distance. The lake is calm so whitout so much as smooth wavelets. There  is  a continuous mountain at the end of the lake.

Other people’s effect of this picture:

When other people see this picture, they will pay attention to the mussy branches. And it should be a little cold. All the trees were died. No vital force for this world.

My effect of this picture:

When I saw this picture, I’m thinking about the weather.Because this picture is a black and white photographs, and no clouds and sun, so let me thinking the atmosphere in that time.During the Civil War, everything seems nervous and silence. So let me thinking about the influence of the Civil war. No laugh and enjoyment.

Describe:

This is a big hall  have many beds. This is a interim hospital filled of wounded soldiers. It is obvious to see it is a war time hospital. Many wounded lying in the bed and also have a lot of  nurses. Also there are some churchmen beside each bed. This room’s raising-of-truss method is very high with simple beds and large windows. All the people seems very busy.

Other people’s effect of this picture:

Other people see this picture may think it is a very crowded room. The hospital is so simple and no enough medicines and chemical reagents. It is a hard time for the Civil War and for the citizens.

My effect of this picture:

When I saw this picture I think there are so many wounded during the Civil War. And I will thinking about why we will have a war?  Do we need war to promote our society? And war means bleed or lay down one’s life. It is so different for a country or for individual.
