I climb and sometimes really high. I do this because when I am on a structure and I'm climbing higher I feel like I'm getting closer to my dad. I feel that I'm closer to him and he is keeping me from falling because I can be careless. ]]> 2017-04-10 17:35:47 UTC https://padlet.com/nate_bolduc14/8ich14k09pyk/wish/165735756 10.Same pain nate_bolduc14 https://padlet.com/nate_bolduc14/8ich14k09pyk/wish/165736775 I took this because my bestfriend Chris knows what its like to have his mom gone and his dad leaving him alone every week. He wanted to go to the tracks because he said it shows him there is a way out of life into a better place. ]]> 2017-04-10 17:39:28 UTC https://padlet.com/nate_bolduc14/8ich14k09pyk/wish/165736775 Abandonment nate_bolduc14 https://padlet.com/nate_bolduc14/8ich14k09pyk/wish/165743562                 My final project is about abandonment. I was 2 my parents divorce. I was 7 when my biological dad died I was 7 when the abuse started from my stepdad who I had to call dad. I was 17 when the abuse ended and my "dad" left. I am doing this topic because I have struggled with abandonment issues since I was 7. I wanted to give the mood of feeling unwanted, forgotten, hated and left behind. I don’t want to make people depressed I just want people to feel what I felt. I want to express my feelings into something I love. 
                The photos I took all have a meaning to them. I chose to use black and white in some because the emotions it can bring. My vision was to create something that showed what I've become ever since my dad had died. My work makes me proud because of the hard work I did to create them. I expect my audience to honestly not pay attention until you bring up sadness and then they focus. 
              I have had more pain in my life but I hurt worse when people leave. Its not a good issue o have in relationships and friendships because I don’t wanna lose that person and I do things to keep them in my life. I have a lot of issues because of all the pain ive felt I have depression and anxiety also but I smile because I see the good in life too.
