Yael's Presentation

In Yael's presentation of her home project, I learned that to her home is being with her family and the places she visits with them. New Hampshire for instanceis where she mentions and shows pictures of her family's yearly visits there. She mentions how the ride up there brings them close together. The picture of her siblings together shows that she sees family as a big part of home. In fact New Hampshire comes up more than once in her presentation, showing how she really pictures it as a home.
Yael seems to enjoy sports and feel that they make her feel like she's home, even though the picture of the glove doesn't show how it relates to home. In her paragraph she mentions how her little league games where reasons to bring the family together. So sports to her seem like a family reunion, it's nice cause to me my little league days were like that too.
Being a person who had some of best times riding around with my friends makes this pictures really relate to me. The way of the picture helps the viewer see the prospective of the passenger seat. It shows how she enjoys the looking back at the simple times in her life.
The last picture makes me realize the forgotten real smile in pictures, most pictures I see these days have forced smiles. When seeing Yael and her friend smiling I could tell just by the position of the camera and background that nothing was forced. By viewing Yaels presentation I was able to see that home to her consists of family, the places she's been and close friends.
