Happy, Akins, Building Publish- Umar Kurugu


I think this photo represents happy because this students is smiling and enjoys his picture being taken.
In this photo there is a picture of one of the academies at Akins. I think this photo is some of my best work that I have done because I have tweeked the contrast of the photo.
This photo represents building very well and what better way to do it then  to take a picture of Akins from the front of the main building, The photo appears to be slightly darker than its original.

The controversial April 1968 magazine cover depicting Muhammad Ali impaled by six arrows appeared on the heels of his refusal to be inducted into the U.S. Army because of his religious beliefs. (Ali, convicted violating the Selective Service Act, was barred from the ring and stripped of his title.) The cover, the second of three Esquire covers defending Ali, shows the boxer martyred as St. Sebastian, a patron saint of athletes and one who was shot with arrows for his steadfast religious beliefs. This was one of the covers designed by George Lois, Esquires Art Director during the 1960s.
