Humans in the Environment- Zoe Wright

 




These are three of my favorite pictures I have taken of people in the environment. The first two are during our class adventures, and the last is a photo I took while conducting research for our group assignment. I really like the second picture because it gives perspective as to what we are doing and showing how we are photographing the nature. I think in the first picture with Kendra in the center really brings more attention to the water and beach as well, showing the landscape. I also love the last photo because Keegan was on the edge of the cliff while measuring this tree and I think it's so cool how it looks like there is almost no land in the picture. I really enjoy taking photos of my friends as we go on adventures to remember it by, so this was a lot of fun to look back on our memories we have created through this course. I also think it's really interesting how you can see the weather differences on each day, because of the light in each picture.

My old neighborhood was a place where wildlife struggled to survive, and even if it had thrived, it would have still been inaccessible. The streets were more often filled with the remnants of human activity than the signs of nature. An occasional dog would wander the alleys. Sometimes, the aftermath of raccoons would leave a trail—scraps of trash scattered across the concrete, a testament to their nocturnal scavenging. Living in a place like this taught me how to hold immense gratitude for nature, unders tanding that the wealthy and middle classes tend to have more access, snow sports and family vacations that I would never experience myself. This motivated me to carve out time and seek out natural beauty, waterfronts and forest days that I prioritized. I feel immense privilege in having transitioned t...
