Natural Disaster Aftermath

By Dorothea Lange

I see a forest scene where most of the trees are either on the ground or about to fall. I feel the this picture is a scene of natural disaster's aftermath. I chose this picture because it shows the power of the earth and how it can destroy anything in a matter of minutes. I think that Lange wanted us to think about all the people that would be affected by this disaster. Its telling the story of the rescuers, the victims, the victims' families, and the people who were not affected by it but still would feel sorry for them. This scene shows that nature built those trees in hundreds of years but destroyed them in seconds.
