The picture to the left shows the experience of the individuals participating in the writers strike. It illustrates the commotion and the hardships those individuals are facing. Their countenances clearly display their fatigue and displeasure which provokes the viewer to empathize with them. Not only are they facing the challenges brought upon them by halted income, but they are also contending with the daily hassle of picketing outside in the frigid January weather. The central figure in the photograph is an elderly man whose facial expression clearly depicts his agitation and exhaustion. The creators of the article undoubtedly chose to include this picture in the article because it presents the strikers as ordinary people who do not by any means want to be on strike. (None of the individuals in the picture are looking directly at the camera and the central figure in the picture (the elderly man) gives off an aura of fatigue and vexation.)

Not only does the picture represent that the individuals deal with low income they are also dealing with the daily conflicts of insults for not having new programs.
This is good. =)
I like how you analyzed the picture, and I especially like how you used the word 'commotion'. I think it fits the image well.
