TOP100 (A man on the Moon)

1. the thing that caught my eye is the astronaut's helmet shine.
2. This picture was the first picture on the moon and was taken by Neil Armstrong. And it is surprising that the person in the pic is standing still considering the low gravity on the moon.
3. this picture has no additional information so ill just say that this picture was speculated to be fake and that people thought the whole landing was a hoax.

TOP100 (Muhammad Ali vs. Sonny Liston)

1. the thing that caught my eye is the familiarity of the photo, and the red gloves on the boxers.
2. So Ali's right hook connected with Liston's chin and he knocked him down. The photo was taken at the right time and was on May 25, 1965.
3. This fight was one of the most anticipated and viewed sports even in history.

TOP100 (Chairman Mao Swims in the Yangtze)

1. the reason i chose this pic is because of its weirdness, the thing that caught my eye is the fact that there is just heads in a body of water.
2. Mao was the leader of the communist party in china. He was getting old but didn't want people to think so, so he took a dip in the river at the age 72 to show the people of china he was still healthy.
3. His own troops disobeyed him at the end of his time in office and the insanity fell off in china.

2. Senkwekwe is a silverback gorilla that live among a lot of other endangered gorillas. He and about ten other gorillas were caught in the crossfire in a conflict that "engulfed" the park.
3. I learned that it too more than a dozen men to hoist him into the air.

ABANDONED THEME PARKS, EC

PRYPIAT AMUSEMENT PARK, PYRPIAT, UKRAINE,

   ,this is the theme park i would like to go to if i had to choose. I like it because it has an eerie feeling and atmosphere. Plus i like how the whole city is abandoned and that you can also go in the buildings there. These situations would make for some good photos.

Image result for skydiving photography

   I think its interesting to take a photo in the sky because its kind of uncontrollable. You never know if maybe you can find a bird in the background of the photo. It would also be nice to GO skydiving and cross that off your bucket list.

   To go skydiving, you would need the equipment, which is probably supplied at the air hanger thing. as far as expenses goes, it costs about $220-$250. Laws you need to look out for are probably obvious like not landing far away from the air hanger thing and landing in someones property.
