Photograph by Margaret Bourke-White.
Found this from http://womenshistory.about.com/od/margaretbourkewhite/ig/Margaret-Bourke-White/Women-Making-Flags--1940.htm
This photo caught my eye at first because of all the flags. It made me look at the flag in a different way. It didnt make me think of independence or pride. It made me think of the flag as just another product being reproduced. I guess also because the people dont look happy, which seems like an emotion you shouldnt feel when you look at the flag. I dont know how this photo relates to my work, but it relates to were I want my photography to go in the future. The photograph seems to capture the worker's real emotions, and theyre everyday life. Also, maybe its revealing how they view the flag?
