This is the cropped photo, which completely changes the denotative meaning of the original form of the pictured advertisement. The original ad, was for Dr. Pepper and how it can be an escape or a break from life. After I cropped the image it not looks like an advertisement to take a tropical vacation. In Practices of Looking, it states that our awareness of the subjective nature of imaging is in constant tension with the legacy of objectivity that clings to the cameras and machines that produce images today, even as the increasing availability of digital imaging software makes the alteration of photographs both easy and widespread. This supports the myth of photographic truth.
