I wanted to either make or find my own picture that really related to this quote and ended up settling on my own photo from years ago. I always came back to this picture because I didn't quite know when or where I took this photo. This really intrigued me and until I remembered what this picture was, I wasn't going to use it. At first glance, I thought this was snow on the ground in my backyard at night. I was fairly confident that it was until a piece of evidence came up. This photo was taken a couple years back...in August. Last time I checked, it doesn't snow in August where we live and I haven't vacationed anywhere far during that summer. As I think and think more, I start to recall taking a trip to the beach with my family and we stayed overnight in a hotel. That was when it clicked, "there we go". I took this at night when I wanted to take a walk across the beach before I headed back to my room. I faintly remember that I had to put the flash on when I take it as it would just be a black picture if I didn't. I found this picture to be kind of eerie to be honest but just as I didn't know what it was at first, I started to make my own manufactured reality of it which really tied in well with what Susan Sontag mentioned.
