A Moment of Time, A Moment of Truth

"It is my belief that pictures are merely tiny snippets of time that have been frozen by technology. Each picture is a moment that was captured and each moment holds an element of truth."

WEEK FIVE, DAY 1: Look deeply: What does this picture say to you?

Wednesday 10th February 2010



I never knew that one of the Jonas brothers- famous american musicians, had become the ambassador of Atlantis Kids Adventure.  Photojournalism really is a very powerful tool.  I look at this picture and to tell the truth, I see young black girls with plastered smiles dressed in Junkanoo wear while a young boy tries to lead them with his cowbells.  It makes me wonder sometimes if we, Bahamians that is, are somehow selling ourselves into slavery again.
