Evidence - Definitions

Definition: 

that which tends to prove or disprove something; ground for belief;proof.

Describing Evidence:

factual, documentation, proof, information, indication, clue, sign, conformation. 

Evidence is shown in the following image through the different buildings and architecture which fill up most of the screen. In this image, reflection is also shown through the large panes of glass. I like the image and the evidence of human presence as someone had to be there to design and build the city. 

Evidence can be the starting point to so many different topics. What it can literally mean, however, is evidence of a crime taking place. The evidence stems from the theory that it has to happen, and the different aspects that show that it has taken place. In the image above, we have the iconography of a crime scene with the yellow tape. While we also have the chalked outline of a body in the background. 

Another way Evidence can be related to is through reflections. They come from all different objects, such as mirrors, glass and water. In the above image, we see the evidence of the water and the distortion it creates on the landscape in the background. I think this image has been cleverly done, while I also like how it is only focused on the glass and the distorted reflection.

Evidence is shown here through the subtopic of vandalism. We can see evidence of vandalism in this image through the wall which is covered in brightly covered graffiti. As this is an illegal crime, and someone must have been there to spray it onto the wall. It is evident that the crime took place therefore fits into this topic well.

Personal Definition:

The proof that an event has taken place in order to prove or disprove a point.
