Answer 1

None of the given options accurately reflect a personal example from Susan Sontag's own life regarding repetition reduction of photos. Her work was more focused on the societal implications of photography, rather than personal anecdotes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context of Susan Sontag's work on photography and repetition, none of the options presented directly reflect a personal example from Susan Sontag's own life regarding repetition reduction of photos. Sontag did discuss various concepts on how photography affects perceptions and society, but the given choices relate more to other theorists or are general beliefs she may have held about photography at large.
