Sensory Overload

1. The meaning of the statement is that people tend to only see the objects and devices surrounding them, rather than the environment. I agree, because people treasure man-made objects too much. Photography can make these objects more appealing.

2. I would not want to visit this place, because being in a small room filled with objects would make me feel crowded.

3. It would probably be a very interesting experience.

4. My favorite photograph is the one with the dishes, because it looks much more organized and less crowded than the other photos.
