I guess I really like surreal images, particularly landscapes (anything with a nice sense of deep space) I like this image because the technique ( a long exposure at night) it tells a story to me. The house looks like it has stood up against the tests of time (even though it is decayed) it looks like it hasnt changed from that state in a long time compared to rapid movement of the clouds in the sky.




the light is what really makes this image more unique and  interesting. it doesnt look like natural light, which creates a surreal contrast between the forrest. the ground and light look like a creepy urban alleyway, while the trees look soft and beautiful. I also like the crispness of the image, there is alot of detail in the leaves of the trees, this is also a nice juxtaposition against the soft and hazy atmoshpere ancompassing the light. I dont think picture would have worked as well if it were any other color, its very out of the ordinary.

I love the expressions of the people in this image, its gives it and interesting narrative (narrative about the relationship between the two people as well as revealing something about their own individual identity).




I love the focus of this image, its very dramatic, the color are nnot too distracting either. you can really feel the tension in the image, and the out of focus background gives it intrigue, and also reflects veiwpoint of the subject (they are struggling and probably disoriented)

 I guess I cant believe that someone caught this moment, its a great capture considering the spontaneity of the image.
 I really like old looking photographs, I like the perspective and the balance between black and whites, I like the diffusion of light and the spontaneous nature of the image.

this is a darkroom image, I like the eeriness of this image. the grianiness and the strange light make add to the mysteriousness of the figure.
