Image Essay #7


This is another high contrast black and white photo that caught my eye right away. I found this piece on deviantART also. It's title is Irreversible. I think that this photo does a great job of telling a story. Looking at the very depressing feel of the picture and the ruins of what may have been a house or some other kind of building it is easy to see that the planned narrative of this piece is that you cannot change the past. Aside from the story of the piece I really like the extremely bright highlights of the sky and the rocks on the ground in contrast to the very dark shadows of the canopy of the tree and at the ground near the bottom of the piece.
