This photo was taken outside around my school where there was a beautiful environment of flowers visible. My photo relates to the theme “Innovation,” as it captures the process behind creating something new or bringing an idea to life. When you take pictures of something, what does that look like outside of the photographers perspective? Here is someone taking a picture of one of the flowers in front of them and then a clone of that perspective taking a photo of another perspective, and then a third camera in front of both from another perspective. I think it shows that moments where people are working hard and bringing their ideas alive from all different perspectives should be captured more often. I wanted to create something simple yet that had meaning, and that we should acknowledge creativity more often.

The photo relates to innovation because I am doing anti-innovation because the photo is black and white but the photo looks like an old looking scary movie.

My photograph relates to innovation because it’s a reminder of how students can go to a place to study and be innovative with research. Instead of using devices, there was a time when students needed to do basic research. Now that we have all these new devices, it is very different from how it was back then. One fact is that this photo brings back memories of how students used to research to find new information by browsing through books and books. Devices we have now are the innovations of how technology has come so far so fast. We may still see more advanced technology later on.

The photo was taken in the summer of 2022, landing in Spain. The photo was edited to look like there was a woman sitting on the wing of the plane, enjoying the view. This fits the theme of “innovation” because it shows the possibility of defying gravity altogether.

This is an accurate representation of innovation in the field of photography. It clearly illustrates the advancement of technology over the past hundred years. Beginning with a hand cranked motion picture Brownie camera as it morphs into a modern video recording device known most commonly as a digital single-lens reflex camera.

This is innovation because I am using a digital toy instead of a real toy.

My photo relates to innovation because it represents a different perspective of obtaining knowledge to be innovative and creative. Some people need to know, study, and acquire all of the information they need to build and create new ideas.

The photo of the track spike shoe called the Dragonfly, was taken on my schools track on the straight away. Luckily, the rain from the night before had made puddles in the middle of the track and happened to be in the most perfect spot. I used the puddles to create a reflection of the shoe.
This photograph relates to the theme, "Innovation" because track spikes have evolved over time since the year 1924. Before modern day track spikes, spikes back then were made out of heavy leather and rubber with no cushioning, and long, hard nails bolted into the midsole of the shoe. This type of shoe was made for all types of events in the sport of Track and Field and Cross Country running. Track spikes back then weighed up to 6.3 ounces which is very heavy for a track spike in the modern world.
As Track Spikes have evolved over the years, so have athletes. With better grip, more control, powerful push offs, and responsiveness, athletes can compete more comfortably and feel good when they race. Modern day Track Spikes now come in all shapes and sizes for particular events like sprinting, jumping, throwing, and running longer distances. Dragonfly Spikes are meant for middle and long distances, and for me, these spikes have made it really easy for me to run fast and feel good. This is how Track Spikes have evolved.

My bother is one of the most creative and curious people I know, constantly thinking of ways to innovate and improve the world around us. Ever since he was young he would build robots out of cereal boxes and tell my family about all of his "inventions" that he wanted to make, becoming disappointed to find out that many of them already existed.
He recorded his ideas in this journal that my mom gave him when he was young that reminded him to "keep dreaming" regardless of the criticism he received from other people. As he leaves for college this year to study environmental sciences, I am certain that he has the potential to make a change, something my mom saw from a young age. Maybe one of the greatest innovations was not the computer or internet, but rather the paper and pen that allowed people to imagine them.

I took this photo in my front yard when I was playing outside. I noticed a beautiful sunset outside so I had my mom watch the streets so I could capture this photo of the tire of my grandma’s car.
My photo relates to the theme “Innovations” because it shows you that transportation is just one new idea. It makes you think, what is coming next? Without transportation, we wouldn’t be able to get around from place to place.
Nowadays, technology innovates us. Technology innovations have slowly become part of our lives and have essential value in our daily life. Now, we have to adapt to the new innovations that make our life more convenient day by day. Let’s use these new technologies to help us go and explore the world.

I took this photo in Mumbai, India around dusk. We were passing by the airport where they are currently building a new terminal. The crane stood out to me in front of the sky, prompting me to take the photo.
This photo relates to the theme of innovation because it captures new buildings being constructed. For a city as populated as Mumbai, efficient travel is very important, and it's something the city (and the country as a whole) struggles with. The improvements made to the airport help represent the progress Mumbai is making, which is really significant for me because my grandparents, uncles, and aunts live in nearby downtown Mumbai.

I think electric cars are an innovation because they don't need gas which means they don’t cause pollution, and less pollution means a better earth. Hybrids are also good for the earth even though they still use gas. The Tesla is an example of one of the electric cars that are becoming even more popular day by day. That's why I think electric cars are an innovation.
