3/29

The poster that I found had the most emotional impact on me was this poster:
http://www.allposters.com/-sp/Bravery-Posters_i372196_.htm
It is a poster of a soldier on the ground pointing his gun outwards, towards the viewer. The picture is lifelike and realistic, this is what the soldier must do--and seeing that is emotional enough. But on top of that, the gun is aimed at the viewer, which gives the feeling of being under fire, or at the wrong side of the gun. It makes me very uncomfortable to look at the poster because I feel like I am about to be shot down.
