Writing Assignment #1



       The famous "Air Jordan" dunk pose, from one of the greatest players to ever play the game, Michael Jordan. In 1988 "MJ" competed in the "Slam Dunk Contest", he went and performed this incredible dunk no other human being ever had done. My love for the game of basketball in the picture above this picture speaks to me. It shows greatness in the making, history being told. Growing up watching clips of "MJ" made me idolize him. Enough about "MJ"the reason why i choose this picture is because what he did in the image above showed anything is possible. The image its self can say lots of things. I like the way how the redness in the jersey and his silhouette make him stand out. His body makes the focal point in the image and it makes you connect the dots, him jumping towards the basket. In the image the shoes he his wearing are very popular they are called the "Retro 88' Cement 3's". My favorite basketball player in an inspirational image.
