No Fly List: The Blue Colored Signs

Decent Essays
The No Fly List is not effective when it comes to people who look alike or have similar names. The source is set at an airport representing how people get around the world, even though the “No Fly List” limits some people. On the wall on the left of the photo there is a sign that reads “Wanted” which has a photo of a man with curly hair. This sign was used to show that the person is a criminal and got away with leaving the country, though this doesn’t actually happen we are exaggerating that that’s what could happen if they don’t start knowing more about the criminal or keeping tabs on them. There is a huge sign at the top saying “AIRPORT”. The blue coloured sign indicates it is a WestJet airport, an airline which flies all around the world.
