Influence can have both a positive impact and a negative one. It can allow people to do the right thing in situations, but also the wrong thing. Once someone special/important does something, everyone else in line is going to do the same thing. Famous people and the internet I believe have the most influence on people. They inspire people to be just like them, or just like someone online. It can lead to negative self-concept and identity, causing someone to not be grateful for who they are as a person.
For my photo, I wanted to use dominos to represent the word influence. I thought that it was the perfect example of what it really is (the object). Once the first domino falls, all the other dominos behind it fall with it. I set up the dominos on a piece of glass to add a mirror/reflection effect. I had my dad push the dominos down to show them falling together. The dominos are in the act of falling down in the photo. I like how each domino is different; different numbers and different colors.
