In both Remains and In War Photographer the poets wanted to engage with the reader so that they could connect to you and convey a personal experience on to you. Both poems are about how people who are in a war environment and how they are able to make decisions under pressure and how they are attached to events they have witnessed. In War Photographer he only witnesses what goes on and observes where as in Remains the soldier is actually contributing to the conflict and fighting.

Both Duffy and Armitage use form and structure to make their point more clear . In both poems the poets use enjambments to express that you don't have enough time to take time to think through an incident you have to act in a fast panic. Duffy uses enjambment in stanza 1 to convey that his work is really important and that it is taken for granted and not respected enough. Armitage uses enjambment in stanza 1 to show the serious of the soldiers work and that an event can come out of nowhere and you just have to act to it in the best manor you can.

In the poem  'War Photographer' the personal experience of war and conflict is the photographer observing the disasters that are happening. However, in the poem 'Remains' the soldier is having the personal experience of actually pulling the trigger on the enemies. 

In the poem 'Remains' Armitage uses a irregular rhyming scheme to show how war and conflict is not all planned out and not everything goes the way you expected it. Also with the irregular rhyming scheme and the variety of short and long sentences; the form and structure suggests the severe pain and that the solider is not in control of what his outcome actions are. However, if Armitage used a regular rhyming scheme, this would show that everything was planned out and everyone is in-control of their actions. But, in the poem 'War Photographer', Duffy uses a regular rhyming scheme to not only show how in control the photographer is by his actions but, to show how regular different peoples reactions are to his pictures and how nobody's reaction really changes. However, Duffy uses irregular sentence structures and lengths of words per sentences which creates a lot of enjambment. The enjambment could show the pain and suffering under the photos that the photographer takes by the stanza 2.

In the poem 'War photographer', Duffy uses the quote "the reader's eyeballs pricked with tears, between the bath and pre-lunch beers" Duffy uses imagery to show personal experience because it reflects the sharp transition from war to sat having a pint of Stella with his mates. This is personal towards the photographer because his 'eyeballs pricked with tears'. ]]> 2016-09-21 08:25:25 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125314079 https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125314191 Both 'Remains' and 'War Photographer' are about people who have suffered the effects of conflict, however, the war photographer observes war whereas, the solider in Remains actually physically shoots someone and is in action. Duffy uses the story of a photographer developing his photos  in his darkroom suggesting how all of his memories are coming back and continue to haunt him. On the other hand, Armitage uses the story of a soldier who shoots a man and continues to feel guilt, suggesting that most actions have consequences. 

In 'Remains' Armitage uses irregular line lengths throughout the whole of the poem to reflect that his feelings are chaotic  and not in control. This is effective because it creates the impression of the severe pain and fear the soldiers have to go through in war. Similarly, in 'War Photographer' Duffy uses irregular line lengths throught the poem also, to reflect that war can go on for a while and its unexpected, suggesting the war photographer has to go through constant guilt.This is effective because it conveys how important the war photographers job is to him as he is constantly going through the feeling of guilt.

In the poem 'Remains' Armitage uses the verb "tosses his guts back into his body". ]]> 2016-09-21 08:25:58 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125314191 https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125316549
Both 'Remains' by Simon Armitage and the 'War Photographer' by Carol Ann Duffy convey personal experience who have suffered the effect of war and conflict. The poem 'War Photographer' observes the war and uses the image of photographs developing to show that the memories still haunt him even though he is at home. Duffy wrote the poem to question whether it was right or wrong to take photographs of people who have suffered throughout war.  However, the soldier in Remains has experienced this himself, he took part in the war which shows his personal experience. Armitage uses the image of a soldier who shoots someone and feels guilty which is shown as his conscience. 

In the poem 'Remains', Armitage doesn't use the regular rhyme scheme to show chaos and that his feelings are mixed and not in control. This is shown in stanza two when the soldier is about to open fire. This is effective because it creates the impression of the terror and pain that the soldiers suffer in war. It implies that the soldier can not focus on war as he is distracted by the terror. 
     Similarly, in the poem 'War Photographer' Duffy also uses the irregular length of the lines which shows that on top the structure of the poem just looks regular. This is shown in stanza one when the photographer is developing his photos. However, if you look deep enough it shows the image of suffering.  Using the irregular length of lines shows that war is unexpected and unknown to a lot of people which is why war photographers take photos of the suffering. It conveys the constant guilt that the war photographer goes through each day.

'Remains' presents a soldier who is fighting in the war and physically has to shoot someone, whereas, 'War Photographer' is about a photographer of the war who has to capture each moment of devastation he witnesses to show the world in desperation to make them aware of the brutality war brings.

In 'Remains' Armitage uses enjambment, in stanza 5, to suggest the soldiers confusion and panic as to why he's really at war and if him being there really makes any difference to the devastation. The enjambment also symbolises the fact he can't escape from the war and when he gets home, he can't escape from what's happened.]]> 2016-09-21 08:39:12 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125317112 hackneyl1 https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320026 Clear and focused introduction Jasmine]]> 2016-09-21 08:51:57 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320026 hackneyl1 https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320160 2016-09-21 08:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320160 hackneyl1 https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320224 2016-09-21 08:52:58 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320224 hackneyl1 https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320305 2016-09-21 08:53:27 UTC https://padlet.com/hackneyl1/hxkdsa2ruxcg/wish/125320305
