Depicts 50,000 plastic bags, equal to the estimated number of pieces of floating plastic in every square mile in the world's oceans.
Depicts 48,000 plastic spoons, equal to the number of gallons of oil consumed around the world every second.
Depicts 92,500 agricultural plant seeds, equal to one hundredth of one percent of the number of people in the world today who suffer from malnutrition. To illustrate the entire statistic with 925 million seeds would require ten thousand prints of this image, covering more than eight football fields.
Depicts 240,000 plastic bags, equal to the estimated number of plastic bags consumed around the world every ten seconds.

10 food tips
.) Keep the background clean Make sure there is a color contrast between the background and the food, don’t have the two be the same color or a similar shade. Keep the background simple and uncluttered. If unsure, stick to a plain white background.
2.) Try different angles.
3.) Fill the entire frame. You may want to frame your dish slightly off center. Pay attention to what you can see in the image as you photograph. You may need to back up or move in toward the food, depending on your lens. You don't want to get so close that you can't tell what the food is, but you don't want a ton of negative space either.
4.) Stick to foods that are visually appealing - bright, glossy, and with interesting textures
5.) Drizzle on a little glaze just before photographing those cinnamon rolls. And, after you've take a few pictures, take a bite or slice a piece off so the photo looks like the food is in the process of being eaten.
6.) Adjust the white balance .Adjust the white balance on your camera according to what you’re shooting.
7.) Use a tripod Most food photography will be done indoors, where there might not be enough lighting. Use a tripod whenever you can as it beats trying to hold very still for long a amount of time.
8.) Use props. Maybe a glass of orange juice to go with those pancakes? A bottle of wine in the background with your steak and mash meal? Or maybe some hundreds and thousands sprinkled around your cupcakes?
9. Use natural lighting. Shoot during the day near a window where you would get plenty of natural sunlight.
10.) Cheat if you have to. As long as you’re not planning to eat the food afterwards, there are ways to enhance your food by using some industry tricks. For example, make your food glisten by brushing on some vegetable oil. Create that ‘fresh out of the oven’ steam by placing some microwaved cotton balls that have been soaked in water. Or make perfect-looking ice cream that won’t ever melt with some mashed potatoes.

Haitian painter
I've learned about how it is tough to make money for food and water. Also how kids will have to work at a young age to make money to help pay for food and school. And i also learned that all haitians do anything they can to make money and are always working to make life better instead of sulking around.
