Hunger

For my fourtnightly picture project this week, the theme was hunger. I wanted to base my theme on starving children as it is what springs to mind when people mention the word 'hunger'. Although it obviously wasn't possible for me to fly out and spend a week in Africa or another third world country so I chose to use symbolism. A teddy bear, to symbolise the starving child. And my main aim was to produce an image of a inanimate object have a human emotion of sadness, I do feel I managed to achieve a sadness in the following photograph. Although origionally I wanted the bear to have no stuffing in with a concaved stomach, but the bear was too small and didn't have as stronger feel as the image I finally chose to submit.
