observations

beautiful colors
many people
lights
circular focal point
blue, red, pink, purple, black
looks magical, almost like a dream



Inferences

many people have come together for the olympics 
this is a far cry from the China we all think of today
not focusing on controversey
all colors, not just China's colors of yellow and red

This image is a striking one that provokes many different thoughts than what we think of when talking about China. The circular lines on this photo may represent the fact that so many people have come together the past two weeks for these Olympics. This makes China seem loving, open, and harmless, which is the opposite of what many people think about the country in this day and age. The colors you see in this photo are not just China's colors, but many other colors such as blue black purple and white. This creates a beautiful picture of course, but also shows that every color is used perhaps for unity. The fact that so many people have come to this closing ceremony shows that maybe China is no longer seen as a harsh. scary country with weapons and strong authority. It shows that we are all in unity, if even for just one night.

what my pencil says about me

*observations* *inferring*

green I am forgetful

I borrowed it I am uncomplicated

has a grip I like to be comforted

simple I don't care what it looks like as long as it works

mechanical
