What did I take a Picture of ?

Sunflower

What does it represent?

Peace

They’re several paths you can take throughout life, but no matter which one you

decide to choose, life itself will guide you to where the light is. While transitioning into a

college lifestyle I felt the idea of reincarnation. I decided to compare a sunflower as

myself because it brings warmth and positivity within myself and others that witness my

transition into maturing into a better me. Walking into the college lifestyle I didn’t know

where my roots would guide me. All I had to relay off was the warmth of a powerful star

that made me blossom that insisted in creating who I am today and who I will become. I

walked into York College with my gray petals until they weren’t strong enough to hold on

anymore. Everyday I worked on myself to begin my growth journey to a sunflower.

Being the eldest of three, The more petals that grew in the more responsibilities I

had that I couldn’t handle. At times I felt invisible and at times I felt seen because I was

mandatory support for the upcoming petals. Being the eldest of the three, my

independence heightened in power and I needed to take on a role larger than expected.

Being the role model to my sister’s I had to stay positive so then they can follow in my

footsteps.

I always found myself bringing positive energy everywhere I go. I

like to be known as the leader and take charge to put people on the right path. I see

myself bright and tall. A sunflower symbolizes positivity because when you glance at

sunflowers, They stand out by how tall and vibrant they are. I wanted to portray warmth

from a sunflower. In my photograph I wanted to get full detail of the light shining towards

the petals of the sunflower to get the warm feeling.
