The Trench

Posted by Mammoth in Chief (Naperville, United States) on 4 December 2006 in Abstract & Conceptual.

While shoveling (?) the snow, I thought "wow, this looks like a trench" after getting the first stripe of snow of the drive-way. So I took a shot. Of course, the background is another image.

Interesting idea. Looks like a train is coming. Initially when I saw the thumbnail of this picture I thought it was a sunset (in some sort of processing). This is great.

Or it looks like a spaceship coming in for a landing.

Beatiful desolation. I love the abstraction, the thought that this could be anything. The green light makes me think of The Great Gatsby where a green light represents among other things longing. That works here as well.

Wow. Nice surrealism, it reminds me of the cover art from Radioheads 'Kid A'. This is the kind of photo that just grabs your attention.

@Chris Sullivan: Hmm... I don't really see it, but sure, I guess....

Of if you forget all about perspective and just look at the shapes, it could be a christmas tree.
