I think it is very much true, because not all pictures are just subject. Some pictures just have words.Most pictures have some kind of message in them. Even the smallest things show alot of deatials. The little things in a picture can change the subject or meaning to the picture. Lots pictures are very special in there on way.

I think the phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words" is true because in every photo there is a story, theres a meaning to it. In every photo you see there has to be a meaning. when you see a picture of a person in the army you think "He/She is fighting for our lives". When you see pictures of lost or abondon childeren you wanna help them. When ever you see a picture you almost always have a feeling for it. All photos have a purpose or a meaning for them. so yes i do think the term " a picture is worth a tousand words" because every picture can have a tousand reasons.

The saying a picture is worth a thousand words mean that a picture can only be solved by words. Such as where is it at and how does it look. Also some good pictures only can be good with a plain background, and lock in its focus. Another thing is that make sure the head is not cut off in the picture or any body parts. Also make sure there isn't too much light on the subject. So basicly i think its true and thats a picture worth a thousand words.

A picture is Worth a Thousand Words
means a picture is worth a lot. Yes I think it is true because in pictures if you dont lock the focus it will be blurry and hard to see. Also a good picture has a plain background so the subject wont be hard to see. Another thing is to make sure you get on the same level as the subject so that none of the body's parts get cut off. Make sure you always use the flash. Lastly make sure you tell your subject what to do so it can be a good pictures.

I think that the phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words" means that, one picture can say a lot. And it may say more to one person than others. Or maybe it only means a lot to one person, and no one else. I believe that this is very true, due to the fact that I can look at a picture that I absolutely love, and one of my best friends may not like it at all. All in all, the phrase is very much so true.

I think the phrase "A picture is worth one-thousand words" is exactly what it says it is. That statement is completely true. Depending on the photographer, a picture could be taken for various reasons. It could be taken for a happy moment, a sad moment, or just for memory. Also, people view pictures differently. For example, whatever someone thinks about a picture, is the words that it is worth to them. In conclusion, all pictures are worth 1,000 words differently to different people.

A picture worth a thousand words mean that if you see a picture the sight of a picture can say something. The picture is just like talking. The picture can tell you what kind of emotion that the artist was feeling at that moment. Or it can be a special little message to a very special someone. Either way it goes a picture could hurt or cheer someone up or having a special meaning. Just like word picture's can hurt.

A picture is worth a thousand words because pictures tend to explain a lot more than just a caption. Pictures are much deeper in feeling and definition, they show what it looks like and u do the rest but when you look at a picture of someone who is sad you tend to feel bad for that person even though you have no relation with that person, you act as if u have read a whole book about one person and react to it. Pictures were present before words and such so the meaning pictures are worth a thousand words sprang from a time where pictures were the means of comunicating.

I think that it's true because when you grow up and you look back at those pictures you can remember what you did when you where young. If you lost a family member and they're in that picture you can remember what they looked like and remember the times you had with that person, it means a whole lot. Sometimes they would make you sad but at least you can remember all memeries from when you where a kid or a teenager. These are my thoughts on A picture is worth a thoursand words...

I think the phrase “A picture is worth a thousand words” means that pictures have meanings & sometimes one picture could explain & mean a lot, & sometimes it can mean a lot more to one person than it would to another. I think that the phrase is true because I’ve experienced it, & pictures can mean a lot, whether it shows people that you love, people that you hate, or something that means the world to you. Pictures can mean a lot, & they could just mean a little. But they never fail to be worth one thousand words.

I think the phrase “A picture is worth a thousand words” mean that people have different emotions about certain stuff and it depends how amazing the picture is to a person and sometimes that picture is worth a thousand words. I mostly think it’s true because one time I fell in love with a picture that I was in when I was a baby and all I could think was words like innocent, beautiful, so sweet, adorable, precious, tiny, breath taking, ECT. Its like picture is worth a thousand words just because you can’t say them all you can still think them they are still in your thoughts. So that’s why I think pictures are a thousand words its all about what emotion you have that relates the picture.

I think a picture is worth a thousand words because it can do so many things. It can show what has happened and what we should learn not to do. And it can show the good and the worst in humanity. Pictures can remind us of what we have forgoten but didn't want to forget. It will also let us travel to the past and see what happened. And they can explain things that we can't in words.

I think that a "picture is worth a thousand words" means that a picture can say more than words can. I think it's true because you can say whatever you want, but a picture is there and you can atually see it.A picture can be seen in many different ways, but words are just words and most people read them the same and can't interpet them differently. While words can make you feel someting, actually seeing something in a picture can bring more feeling and make you react differently. You can hear someone go on and on about ow horrible and sad it is somewere, and fall asleep. If you actually saw a picture of that place, you would probably react to it more.

To me the phrase, “A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words” means that a picture can say a lot without actually saying it. I think it is true because a picture can change you as a person. If you look at a picture that has a sad little girl crying because she has no mother, that may change you by thinking about adopting a child or starting a foundation for abandoned children. And just because you saw that picture it made you see life in a different perspective. You have to really look at a picture to understand exactly what the illustrator is trying to say. That’s why I think a picture is worth a thousand words.

I think the phrase “A pictures worth a thousand words” is true because one picture shows you so much of what happened. I think the phrase means that one excellent picture can tell you what has happened just like a one thousand word essay can tell you. When you take a picture you keep memories physically but when you write the way the memory happened you keep the memory mentally. When a good picture is destroyed it’s just like losing your one thousand word essay. Once your essay is destroyed you will never get it back just like a picture. Everyone should take good pictures and never lose them. If you take a picture of a loved one who passed you will always cherish the picture and you will keep it forever. If the picture is destroyed your feelings will be hurt because it’s almost like losing them again.

I think a picture is worth is worth a thousand words because you can look at the peoples facial expression and decide their emotion. Also in pictures you can tell if something drastic just happened or if they need help. I think when people use the expression they are referring to if it is a good picture or if it’s just there. This expression can also help you visualize how those people are feeling and how that place may look just after the picture.
When you look at pictures you can tell when they were taken and the struggles those people had to go threw. That is why I think a picture is worth a thousand words.

I think it is true that when you see a photo it is telling you things that could describe it by looking at it. When I see something that is very interesting what I think of it, its showing detail how I describe it. One of the photos I saw on the website is showing a photographer taking a photo of a explosion that had a clear subject in it that was good quality. There was a black and white photo that showed a good scene of soldiers lifting up a flag pole which had locked the focus in the frame. But the photos I saw I described them in my head and thought what it was like in my head when I first saw it. But when I see a photo that interests me I think to myself how these people take good pictures of everything.

I think a picture is worth a thousand words means is you can say more with a picture than with words. It also could mean that people will be more moved with a picture of something than if you just tell them about it. It is true because I’ve been more moved by a picture of something than someone talking about it. If you just say something about a place you’ve been or something sad or happy you saw someone may not be moved by it, unlike when you have a picture to show them. It could also be true when someone has a different point of view than you do for example they could think a picture of deer in a field could be happy because they like to hunt and it shows the deer are not wiped out, while it makes no difference to you. Someone could also like the same pictures you like they could also be moved in a good perspective.

I think it’s true because you can’t just explain a picture with only like twenty words. Also because you always find something new in the picture and you keep on adding information about the picture. Another way a picture is worth a thousand words is because the artist took a lot of time to make the picture so you can at least take notice ad explain it to people what the picture is about. Also the reason I think a picture is worth a thousand words is because there is so much stuff in a picture that people don’t even know about so you have to explain it to them. Lastly the reason I think a picture is worth a thousand words is that there is so many different ways to explain a picture. Those are the reasons that I think a picture is worth a thousand words.

The saying “A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words” means that picture can show the different feelings, emotions and feelings that are happing within the photo. It can show the journey it took to reach that goal, like picture about the winning ceremonies at the Olympics. A picture can also show the hard times of American people, like the photo of 9/11.I believe the quote is true because each picture has thousands of sayings and emotions at the sight. Each pictures as a different timeline and state of each event. Some pictures are joyful while others are full of sorrow. I also believe that the quote is powerful in meaning itself, is has such a strong and emotion background cause it is so true. Pictures are witch make up our colorful and unique world.

The phrase, “A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words” means that pictures have many different words that describe them. An example would be that if you have a picture of a war, it can give you details about what happened back then. I do think this is true because by looking at a picture and describing it in words can tell you how good the picture is. Words that explain the picture can tell you the quality of the picture.

I think the phrase “A person is worth a thousand words” is true. There are many reasons why I think that is true one is a picture has a basic meaning to it that’s why they took the picture. A picture has more than one meaning it could have two three maybe twenty even. Pictures could be viewed at many angles it could be personal or not but pictures are like summaries they don’t need words to mean anything.

Yes I do think a picture can say a thousand words because when you look at a picture you comment on it but you all have different ideas about the picture and then you start to talk about why you say the picture look like it look or what it look like. Also one picture can mean many different things. Next because you don’t think about things the same way as other so they may think about it one way and you think about it another .Because some people think nice thing some people think mean things.

I think that the statement a picture means a thousand words means that everybody has a different perspective. It also means that a picture describes a whole lot that a single word couldn’t do. I think this statement is true because a picture can tell a story by itself. A picture also makes you think of what’s really happening. You can look at a picture an think something totally different from what someone else thinks. That’s why I think that the statement is true.

I think that the phrase "A Picture Is Worth a Thousend words" is true and not true. I think so because when you look at a picture you can either say "oh my gosh this is an awesome picture..." or you would go "ok this is just another picture".

I think the phrase "A picture is worth a thousand words" means you never know what the photographer wanted the picture to mean, so everyone has their own interpretations. It could also mean that the picture could tell you something about the world that you wouldn't normally hear or talk about. For an example, if there was a picture of a drunk driving crime scene, that can show how dangerous the world could be and how reckless people can be. A picture could also means a thousand words because different people will see the picture and have their own connections to it, like the picture could make them think about another picture they saw, or something they read or heard. It could also mean that people have different emotions about the picture. A picture could also mean a thousand words because it can also show what kinda artist the photographer is.

I feel that a picture can definitely speak a thousand words. The main ways are what the picture is of that can really show the expression it wants its readers to have. It can also show how the photographer feels or an emotion that is going through thier mind.
A picture can speak of emotion, dissapointment, envy, even anger. I love seeing creative pictures because it speaks to the viewer saying ihave a creative side.
This is why i feel that a picture can speak a thousand words.

I think “A picture is worth thousand of words” means that each picture shows a type of reaction or feelings. For example if a picture has a sad person being sad than that means that person is sad about something that had happened to them. Also “A picture is worth thousand of words” could also show how beautiful a picture could be. If the picture shows a pretty rainbow than that means the rainbow is very pretty. Pictures can show much reactions, feelings, or how beautiful or anything but most of the time you never know what the picture means.

I think the phrase a picture is worth a thousand words is true because a picture can say a lot just by looking at it. If it’s a person crying you can tell there sad and that something bad probably happened to them. If it’s a picture of the two twin towers a lot of memories come and you start thinking more of the picture. A picture can almost appear like the picture is talking to you. If you see a picture of an African American little girl with little clothes that looks lost you can tell that she doesn’t have much to eat or many clothes to where or is lost. A pictur can also tell a stroy.

I believe that a picture can tell a thousand words because I can take a picture of a dead person and that picture would probably have people asking questions like; Who was he? How did he die? How old was he? Who killed him? Was he ill? And so on. Another example of how a picture tells a thousand words is the pictures from 9/11, any picture from 9/11 can tell you a thousand words because the pictures are so detailed and powerful it just tells you a story. Also not all pictures can tell you a thousand words, some pictures are just pointless pictures that people take for no reason once so ever.
Other than that most pictures tell a thousand words because they just do. Some times it just depends on the person who is looking at the picture to what kind of story it tells.
All in all most pictures tell a thousand words.

I think that it's true because if you don't know how to say something touching to someone you can give them a picture that means alot to them. I also think that pictures can tell stories about an event that happend in your life or history. Pictures can be worth a thousand wods in so many ways because instead of describing something to someone in words, you can show them pictures and they can feel like they were actualy there when it happend. Even though i think that pictures can mean alot, words can still be efective and can mean as much as pictures do. Personaly I think that it all deponds on the cause, for example if it were someones husbands birthday that was dead youmight want to give them a picture in a nce frame of that person,but if it were Valentines Day you would want to give your valentine a card or poem with using words. In conclusion a picture is worth a thousand is a greate quote.

I think a picture is worth a thousand words is true because every picture has a history/story to it like how every person has a history or story in life. Pictures have there own mood like if it’s a picture of a flower it can be a happy picture. But if it’s a picture of a funeral of a lost soldier from Iraq then the mood of that picture is sad. A picture can also tell about a person like the picture of John Mcain and President Obama in this picture john was doing this weird face an walking towards Obama if you look at this picture for the first time and didn’t know what happened in it you would assume that John Mcain isn’t taking the problems of America seriously.
