Week 15.

I found this photograph to be absolutely beautiful. The way the figure is positioned in the water is incredible and very emotional, like the figure is becoming one with the water that is surrounding him. The color of the water is also really incredible, and how all the colors mix together very nicely. The composition also adds a lot to this photograph.

I was immediately intrigued by this photograph because of the tones and the positioning of the figure in the frame. The way the figure is reaching up and how his legs are positioned make it seem like he is falling from the sky. The light coming up from above reminds me of a "fallen angel", or someone reaching up to become closer with the skies above even if they are so far. The dark and lights of the image really adds a great deep emotion to the photograph, and the surrealism of the image does as well.

I have been following her work on Flickr for a really long time now, and the way that she pairs people and house or a building is absolutely incredible. The figure and the building always go hand in hand and the color palette remains the same in each image or flows very nicely. I love the way the light from the windows of the house emit a strong glow and how the blue in the image of the house is reflected in the image of the figure. Her work is very surreal but incredibly beautiful, and reminds me of film stills.
