Kia Ora Fellow Bookworms!
Picture 1 –
The first picture shows a tank-like vehicle transporting what looks like Maori soldiers to some sort of conflict preparations with other individuals following from behind. The photo also shows some abandoned buildings, which looked like they were in bad condition probably from past wars, or owners leaving behind properties without further notices.
Picture 2 –
The second picture shows some men in a group photo standing in front of what looks like a construction site. I could imagine me in the photo all dirty and musty while holding a soiled wrench alongside my fellow companions who probably would’ve made imaginary weapons with their own fingers.
Picture 3 –
The last picture shows some men jumping, with the photo credit stating that they were doing a haka, which in all due respect and honesty, I thought they were being held hostage while calling for help.

My senses: Smell, Visual, Taste
Smell –
After careful inspection, my most related sense for the photos was the sense of smell of in other words olfactory! Why you may wonder? well the photos were very old, and I could visually see the abandoned and wretched background featuring smoke-hungry tanks, the earthy resources surrounding man-made buildings, and the dusty grounds where people once mourned for help. I could imagine the smell being very Earth but also cyberpunky alongside rotten bananas, with a hint of ghost jalapenos & burnt marshmallows
Visual –
I could see myself in these photos acting all childish and youthful since is have a lot of energy burst’s sometimes, but I could also imagine my companions there having the same energy as me.
Taste –
I couldn’t imagine what types of tingly relish’s bursting into my mouth for a brief moment. but then I could see that most of the pictures included some of natures aspect, bushes, dirt, and white rock crumbs. So now I could instantly feel or taste a mix of earthly roots and oily herbs simultaneously which gave an unpleasant tingly imaginational taste to my pallete.
In all inclusive, I have been studying these photos this week, which I personally found very exciting and fun to do.
Thank you for reading my blog and I hope you have a great rest of your day!
