A) The most powerful image printed in The Denver Post from the year of coverage in my opinion is the one where Ian sits alone with his head down while his peers sit together in the back. This shows importance and depth because it shows immense detail regarding not only the situation he is in, but also his mood about the situation.
B) The text and the images are placed in a way where they relate to each other to help better tell the story and visualize it too.
C) The captions give the background information you can't get by just looking at the picture. It provides depth to the story and makes the viewer see the image differently.
D) Ian Fisher is a hardworking 17 year old boy who jumped at the opprutunity to support his country. He enlisted into the army and left his friends and family behind to start his new life. He soon realized military life did not met his previous expectations. Over the course of two years he indured the struggles of the army and himself.
E) The verbs are written in present tense perhaps to relive the moment for the reader.
F) On average each caption is around four sentences long.
The captions provide background information.
The third sentence gives information like 'later that day'.
Yes, some captions include a quote to add even more information.
Yes, some captions have four sentences usually if there is a lot happening in the photo or if someone is being described.
G) I think its possible to tell a whole story with only captions and photos because the images provide detail while the captions provide information.
H) Usually stories provide things like emotion and description of surroundings. Reading a story can be more enjoyable for those looking for that kind of depth.
