'Crossroads'





They say that one meets the devil on the crossroads. It is more a metaphor for difficult times in life than a physical location but why not take the idea? :D I used the colour contrast of blue and yellow to further the notion of duality. You are the one who decides which colour represents a good path and which is a bad one. The very interesting bit is the red lights located in between both colours. Are they telling the observer to stop before he/she takes a wrong path after a bad decision?

The mood of this photograph is the key. It proves the importance of using light and colour for creating an unordinary atmosphere. It is what carries the major value of this photograph. Notice the thick black area ruling the top corners and leaving the blue 'swim' underneath. It allows the clouds to play the major role in the top area.

So... Are you the guy walking the crossroads there? :D

Enjoy! :)

Hey, what an interesting effect you've had, @velimir. I feel that black gives a gloomy appearance and isolation, while yellow plays with the idea of light, salvation. The very posture of man and the loneliness of the avenue create an image of man in the open air before the world. That was so good of you. I really congratulate you!

Oh you are so right. I totally forgot to write about the posture! Thank you!

Simple photograph but the mood and the context in which it is clicked makes it special.
i really liked the all bright colour combination(blue, yellow and red) to leave, the readers with their choice of preference But in real life we are often left with black & white colour only, by the society that represents either good or bad. The society typecasts it as good or evil & never accepts that both the colours(ways) could be good depending on that preference or circumstances of an individual.

It is an interesting way to interpret the red lights in the photo giving that sign to stop, something creative that goes very well with the style of photography that also looks good! Thank you for sharing with us

These upward arrows lead you to imagine something else, @velimir. It's a very good image, excellent timing capture. Congratulations!
