This activity can be used to compare two different images of the same place, person, or thing.
Note: This activity will be most effective if the images depict similar content arranged in a similar order (e.g., two maps of the same area 15 years apart, two dancers executing the same step, two breeds of dog in the same position) and on a matching scale.

Activity Title: Image Juxtaposition: Kingfisher/Bullet Train
Image 1:
- Figure number from image log: Fig. 1.1.1
- Image alternative text: A close-up photograph of a kingfisher’s head.
- Label: The shape of the kingfishers’ bill enables it to dive into water without a splash and catch fish.
Image 2:
- Figure number from image log: Fig. 1.1.2
- Image alternative text: A close-up photograph of a bullet train with a prominent, pointed front end moving speedily through a tunnel.
- Label: The fastest train in the world, the bullet train’s originally rounded front-end caused a sonic boom when traveling through tunnels. As the train’s remodeled front-end approached a geometry similar to the kingfisher’s beak, it could travel faster through tunnels, more quietly, and using less energy.
