Photojournalism

Original Image

Article that would accompany this image is teenage pregnancy, right or wrong?

Edited Image

I cropped the image so that it would focus on the main part of the photo.

I used the wave paper effect to bring a very plain tone to the subject. The background i sponged to make the colour vivid and fun. The contrast between the subject and the background show the difference in teenage pregnancy, advantages and disadvantages.

There is a lot of controversy over this subject and one that needs to be spoken about. However, the education and society today focuses only on the negative issues of teenage pregnancies. The advantages should also be looked at, not to encourage young girls to fall pregnant but to relieve those that do of scrutiny and ridicule.
