" Our main point, though, is that visual images make claims on us as viewers in much the same ways as any written text does." p(240)
" Everywhere we are confronted by visual images that aim to persuade us." p(237)
The article is trying to say like even the visual images give same messages as the written text. So, the visual images and written text are trying to persuade the reader. There is an advertisement as an example show that what is the message and how the location can affect on the viewer. It is saying that location can also affect to the viewer of how they get the message and think about the poster. There are steps to examine the visual images. First, think about what is the first thing you saw or notice when you look at it. Second, think about why you notice it and make your attention. Third, think about pathos, ethos and logos. Pathos is how the visual images make you feel? Logos is what is the message of the visual text? Ethos is like what the author is aiming for?
Reading as a Writer
When we are reading the book or articles, we need to annotate which means we are analyzing of the writer's main point. From there, finding the main point and making arguments as a feedback to see how well we are understanding of the writer's text. So every time when we read, first identify what the author is talking about. Second, identify the main point of what the author's statement. Third, identify the evidence that author provide.
