Final Series

This photo shows my grandfather in a teenage boys position.  I placed him in a room and clothes that were bright colours, clothes that were typical of a teenager and playing xbox which is a typical activity of a teenage boy.  I chose this particular photo as I think the perspective of this photo works really effectively.  Its from the point of view of the TV and it really exaggerates how out of place he is which is exactly what I wanted.

The number of binge drinking females are increasing and this is an activity definatly associated with teenagers and the opposite of the elderly.  Therefore I think this really shows how out of place she is.  I chose this particular photo, rather than others with people in the background, as it fits better with the series and allows you to concentrate only on the one person in the photo. 

Cooking is usually associated with women, whereas barbecues with men.  Here I captured a teenagers in a adults situation.  The gumboots, shirt tucked in and colours are not at all trendy and how a teenager would be likely to be seen.

Female adults wardrobes often consist of black and white and business outfits.  The car is one that is out of the price range of the average teenager.  This combination makes the teenager immediately look out of place.  I chose this particular photo as I like the framing and every aspect of it, the house in the reflection, the house in the background and the car are all posessions that could be associated with adults.

Retired mens daily activities are often relaxing, church and chores which aren't much different from the chores which teenagers or adults would do.  But the reason I think this photo clearly shows a grandfather is because the bin is old fashioned, the garden and grass in the background is well kept, the house also looks old fashioned and the clothes are a colour and style which are what a grandfather would wear.

One hobbie that is a cliche "grandma thing to do" is sitting in an old fashioned armchair, knitting and drinking tea from an old fashioned cup and saucer.  I think this photo works really well as every aspect of this photo has that grandma feel to it.
