Picture 2 


Purpose - The two people in the picture have a conversation. However, the woman doesn't seem interested in the conversation and looks bored. On the other hand, the man in the picture appears to enjoy the conversation. Considering the image's aesthetic, it can be assumed that the two are on a date.

Medium - verbal

Effectiveness - This picture portrays the importance of having a conversation which interests both of the people in it. In this picture it is evident that the girl is not interested in the conversation because of her disappointed face. Even though it looks like a date, there is no two way communication. Another possibility is that the girl is angry about something we are unaware about and the boy is tried to charm her. These still pictures usually convey emotions of love, hatred and anger.

The incentives like food and treats are used as a weapon of using and sometimes exploiting the animals. But, for a normal being this image would be very fascinating due to the joy humans get when the see some other being perform other then themselves.
