Physical Abuse
Physical abuse is a horrible thing that is happening in our would and we need to do something about it. On average over 20 people per minute get physically abused. Even professional athletes, actors and professional singers, are abusing people and not much is being done to stop it. 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men have been victims of some sort of severe abuse. Also 68% of children have been abused by a family member. There are 2.9 million cases of child abuse reported every year. With that there are 5 children who die from physical abuse every year. Over 6,000 children were identified as needing protection from physical abuse in 2016/17. Nearly 5.3 million incidents of domestic violence occur among U.S women aged 18 or older. I think this topic is important because so many people don’t see how bad it actually is and how much people are just ignoring it. I want the amount of women,children and men getting abused to go down and maybe stop. There isn't anything being done about this, the one thing that has changed is there is a hotline where you can call and get help from being abused. But it hasn't really helped because the physical abuse rates are still high, and people are still getting hurt. I think my photographs will help with this problem because it will make people realize how serious this problem actually is and that there needs to be something done to help the people going through this.

My first photo is my girlfriend playing volleyball. She is serving the volleyball to the opposing team, and the picture is of her mid serve
The second photo is also of my girlfriend playing volleyball, and she is waiting for the ball to come down from after being hit up in the air, so she can hit it over the net to score the point. My third photo is me swinging a bat and having a timer on my phone to set the picture at the right time so it could get a motion blur of me mid swing after hitting the baseball. My final photo is a fake motion picture of an airplane where I used Photoshop to blur my photo and then unblur it to make it have motion. |
