Proposal

For my photo essay I would like to photograph some of the things that make this area so diverse and unique. To show this, I want to show some important parts of my life here as well as things that make this a special place, such as the farms, beaches, towns, schools, and hopefully New York City. I think photos of these things shown in the right sequence with a mix of black and white and digital images, could tell a pretty good story. The message I intend to tell with this is that in the relatively small area of Long Island there is a very diverse group of people and places that make it different than most other areas.
