I decided to use a picture from a vacation I went to last summer in South Carolina. This tree is called the Angle Oak Tree and it is estimated to be well 1,500 years old. The audience for this picture is people who love nature. People that like to go see unique places that states have to offer. Tourists who like to see cool things where they are at. This is a massive tree and was so cool to be able to stand next to this massive living tree. I also attached a white and black picture so it would be easier to get the feel of it. With the picture being in black and white, I don't think that my audience will change. It does give the look that the tree is even older that what I said it was. The title that I would give this picture is "Older than you". I chose this title because everything that goes and sees it won't compare in age to it. This tree has been through a lot and it is still growing. Again my audience won't change. If any of you get a chance to go to South Carolina, near the coast, I highly recommend go seeing this beautiful tree.

I decided to do my meme on CT technologist because that is what I currently do the most. I kept the most of the captions the same except for the third one. I decided to 'what patients thinks I do'. For my first picture I chose a radiologist reading exams. Every time I try and tell my friends what I do or they explain to others what I do, they always think I am a radiologist. I correct them by saying I am the person that takes the pictures.

Since my mom works in the medical field, she already knew what I did. She may not understand the concept of what I do, just knows that I use a machine to take a scan of the body.

The third picture is for all the patients that I get to encounter on a daily basis. I would say 3 out 5 of all the patients that I work with always thing that the machine they are going into is a MRI machine. So that is why I put a picture of a MRI machine in that space. Another thing that I get is metal questions and if they can go in the scanner. I always tell them that this is CT not MRI, and if they have a piece of metal that will cause artifact I have them remove.

The forth picture is simple because everyone knows that we techs deal with radiation, and that if we didn't have then we would have a job. For the fifth picture I put a person being' surrounded by a lot of stuff, I chose this because I always think I am doing a bunch of work before we actually scan. We always want to make sure we are doing everything properly because we don't want to have to repeat scans. The last picture is a given because I wouldn't be doing that if I weren't a CT tech.
