Visual Rhetoric
There are a couple things that caught my attention when I first saw this photo. First, the seven different animals lined up next to eachother. The different animals don't necessarily have any importance. The important factor is that they are all different species and therefore some are able to climb a tree while others can't. Another thing that captured my attention is the quote bubble. This is the main part of the photo, and the overall image wouldn't be getting its point across without it. The photo is black and white which makes you concentrate on the main idea. If there were bright colors and patterns, they would distract from the overall focus of the photo. The main point of this photo is that modern day education systems treat all students the same. The picture is making a point that if you give everyone the same test, some would fail simply because they don't know how to complete it and they were never taught. The photo isn't directed to a certain group of people, but just making everyone more aware of the way our education systems work.
