Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #59 'Almost Romantic'

The name of this art photograph is: 'Almost Romantic'

This image appears to be romantic but if you take a deeper look you will sense quite a bit of disturbance going on there. Where we expect to see wide soft areas we find creases and subconsciously it does provoke unease. To me, it's like as if someone received a beautiful postcard and then crumpled it after reading. The writing must've been somewhat unpleasing.

The clash of tones is present and almost as if dividing the image into two parts. The vanilla sky with a touch of pink and its reflection against the island and the dark green. The red corners close the composition and even it out colour balance-wise. This adds strength to the previous premise. The sun is opposed to the dark-green corner. I read it as the sad part of the soul, the place where it happened.

It is a double exposure done in-camera. I took fourteen of them and only this one came out right.

Enjoy!
