ART 199 Karmin Godina May 8, 2013 From His Lens to My Soul Never before had I thought of a photograph as art until I was introduced to a photograph taken by Ansel Adams. I found myself standing in front the framed piece for quite some time enjoying every aspect of the picture. It was his famous photo of Bridalveil Fall at Yosemite National Park. I knew at that moment that I was going to take it home. When I got home I did some research on the internet and found that overall most of his work was done in black and white, and that most of his work was of nature.
For example, “The cloth merchant, the stonecutter, the wheelwright, and the carpenter each had himself depicted in a medallion in the lower part of the window donated by his guild, as close as possible, as it were, to future client” as a type of “advertisement” encouraging their own economic growth. The growth of the size of a church or cathedral came from a different, very social, aspect of medieval life. After the construction of a new cathedral the people of a city nearby suddenly felt driven to build something bigger, and better than that of the neighboring cities or even cities that were dozens of miles away. This stemmed from a very primitive desire to break records causing an epidemic of cathedrals to break out across medieval Europe. So not only were the “Bourgeois civic pride, the desire to conquer new worlds, and merchants' vexed souls” all contributing to the success of the cathedral crusade, The Church was also encouraging all of these indulgences of fabric to help build God’s House in fact “the Christian church, by contrast, demanded that her faithful contribute to the constructions of churches large enough for the populace to have access.” From this it is safe to say that this cathedral construction boom originating from very selfish points of trying to outdo their fellow Christians was embraced by the church as a way to gain support, by political figures as a place to meet and discuss and take care of business
Impact of Industrialization in Western Europe During the period of time between 1750 and 1900, the impact of industrial change in Western Europe due to the Industrial Revolution underwent several transformations while holding onto its original purpose: to introduce entirely new technologies that improved everyday life and skyrocket the world economy. The First Industrial Revolution between 1750 and 1850 mainly experienced local challenges such as the new industrial cities being filled with pollution and dirtiness; however, the Second Industrial Revolution between 1850 and 1900 experienced problems on a much larger scale, while also eliminating those problems by significantly improving the living standards. Another change between the two revolutions was the increased productivity during the time period 1850 to 1900, due to new machinery that could replace the need for so many workers, which led to the formation of labor unions and business cycles. However, even though the Second Revolution occurred on a much larger scale, several continuities can be noted. One such continuity is the poor working conditions experienced by the industrial workers.
It also had a stable government, which allowed for the people to begin industrializing in the first place, harbors for trade, a very large population resulting in a very large workforce, and many water ways throughout the country to transport materials and products as well as to use for water power at mills. There are several reasons why the Industrial revolution started in the first place. One reason being that there was widespread resistance to disease in Europe as well as a reliable food supply, allowing for steady population growth, which in return created more demand for products, which in turn resulted in new ways of producing products more efficiently in response to demand. As a result of Industrialization, a new economic philosophy arose. Capitalism called for the lack of government intervention in the economy.
Slavery and population had a big affect on the next 100 years of the United States history. The US also changed diversely with new innovations like roads, waterways, railroads, steamboats, and refrigerated railroad cars. A few new innovations that changed or improved from 1776 to 1870 are the roadways, waterways, railroads, steamboats, and refrigerated railroad cars. Roadways were an innovation that created a way for easier, and faster transportation. Waterways were also a way for transportation, to cut out a lot of land, and cut out time.
Geography 104 Field Trip: Observations of On the class field trip to downtown Victoria, I observed a variety of the different building structures, functions, and diversity and how they have evolved over time. Along with my observations I obtained a grasp on some historical knowledge of places including the harbour, Chinatown, and Bastion Square. The Inner Harbour is provides what some might say the most stunning view in Victoria. It is full of adventure and holds different opportunities for both residents and tourists to really experience and adventure Victoria’s landscape. Its oceanfront is home to a major seaplane airport, providing both tours and transportation.

My town is the exact opposite of a quiet town; something is always happening. Most parts of the town are noisy from around 8.00am to 5.00pm, which is the official working hour, and the streets are very busy. From my bedroom window the beauty of the mountains, always exploring with my eyes the forest or the meadows, looking for a clean and quiet place. Being alone outside of my apartment helped me to dream with my eyes open admiring the blue sky or the clouds. I liked to go out there to lay down on the grass, listen to the wind, kiss the flowers and watch the leaves moving.
