The Absence (fine art photography)





This picture is fine art photography. The absence of people in this picture, is kind of disturbing in a way, the feelings I get from this image reminds me of being told a ghost story as a kid. The strength of this picture is unsettling the depth of the emptiness of the coat on the floor, the old record beside it, is in my eyes a ghost of its forma life. I believe the purpose of this picture is to show a time in history when we the world was at the brink of nuclear warfare, and how if the world had went down this path, the image we see above in the artist point of view would be the world we would be living now, well not living but you get my point. The composition of the picture above is on and angel going towards the top left conner of the picture, me as the viewer look at the picture composition it looks like the picture is taken on a slated suffuses, the lines in this picture is used effectively, the elements of composition are used because the lines give structure to a picture by directing the viewer's eyes and attention to the main lines, this unify composition by directing the viewer's eyes and attention to the main point of the picture or lead the eyes from one part of the picture to another.
