This lecture explained to me how can meaning of the image or a photograph could be changed by use of the text. Jim Goldberg a magnum photographer done a series of photographs, where she let people who were photographed write on them, whatever they want to say or express, giving them freedom of speech. For many some photographs can be meaningless but when adding some writing to it, everything seems to get brighter and understandable. We can also change the meaning of the image by adding some text to it.
In editorial photography text is an important factor, due to images being based on what articles are about. I, as a photographer in my group had to work on understanding the text and creating reliable responses so readers can visually react to the reading part.
