These three images have a related theme about ocean pollution. I found the process of finding image with a partner is really interesting. Because you don’t have any topic to start with, you can adapt your idea throughout the process. A partner can give you suggestions and help to can up with better ideas. The process of finding our images:
Animals → Marine Animals → Start finding images → See an image of jellyfish → “It looks like a plastic bag!” → Ocean Pollution → Find new images → Attribution → Captions.

Our final topic is ocean pollution.These images tells a story about how pollution is a really serious problem and it cause a lot of death of marine animal. Everyone might have different feelings about this set of images, and it’s ok.

Making attribution for the image is the part that was kind of boring, but very important. When I was making the attribution, I found out that there were different types of permission for image, and some can be used for business and some can only be used for sharing. These permission settings are important because understanding the rules shows respect to the author.
