Linking Images #Finding a common story
• • 2 August 2019 When we look at a photograph, we ‘scan’ the image looking for meaning: symbols, codes, things that we recognise and help us to understand interpret the photograph. What these codes are depends on our culture, our experiences, our age … • What else could they depend on? Linking Images | #Finding a common story
As a result Every picture tells a different story to every person. Have a look at these individual photographs: what do they tell you? Think about • What do you see? What is happening? • What does this mean, according to you? • How does this picture make you feel? 3 August 2019 Linking Images | #Finding a common story

To sum up 1. Different people see different things. 2. You can use pictures as symbols to help us understand what you want to tell us. 3. You can use more than one image to explain difficult concepts. 4. Groups of pictures together strengthen the meaning in an individual picture. 5. Groups of pictures together ‘invite’ us to see the story. 24 August 2019 Linking Images | #Finding a common story
