     The first image with the car and all the expensive looking foreign bottles of water is trying to say that this car is very luxurious.  You can look at the whole picture and decide that this is an expensive car.  By using the foreground, middle ground, and background you are able to use the whole picture in a roundly aspect.  By looking in the background you can see the houses are very nice and big.  As you move your eye closer to the middle ground which could be considered the man, he is in his middle ages and washing the car, which is able to tell you this car is aiming more towards an older crowd.  Then when you look at the foreground it is all these glass bottles of water which are all empty assuming that he used them on the car.  The successor in the image successfully conveyed the idea of the car being luxurious
       In the second image with the ironing board and the downy, the picture is trying to convey the idea that the person who does wall the ironing will not have to do so much.  This picture is interesting because it is so simple that I do not understand it.  I had to read all the words to actually understand the picture as a whole.  I finally understand now that the Downy is playing the role of the iron, but I thought the iron was on its way out and this was an ad for a specific iron. 

   In the third image this is and ad for paper towels.  The image is trying to say that the paper towels will soak up all the grease and unhealthy oils that secrete from French fries.  The creator of the image successfully conveyed this message by using a huge graphic of French fries placed nicely in a basket with a paper towel.  I immediately knew what this picture was conveying and had no questions about the picture. 
      In the fourth image, it is a picture of a car turned upside down.  The image is trying to convey that automobile accidents often have injuries to go along with the wreck. The image displays this sufficiently showing a strong wreck that one can presume had injuries involved.  The creator of this image did a good job showing their message.
      In the fifth image with the black high heels and mascara the image is trying to say that both objects have high impacts.  This is my favorite image I collected because of the meaning.  I like the fact that the high heels create a high impact on someone if you step on someone.   The mascara creates a high impact on eyelashes by making them look longer and appealing. The creator of the image was creative when thinking up this image.  It definitely conveys a message easy to acknowledge.
