Response to A stroll to the end of time

from Tony Rowlett (rowlett@alaska.net)
I think this is a good photograph. It is interesting that, instead of the calm and peaceful feeling that this photograph ought to rightly invoke, I feel a sense of dread, maybe impending doom. The recent films "Titanic" and "Perfect Storm," and old WWII submarine flicks probably impact my interpretation. The photograph has an overall dark tone. One subject appears hasteful and both are headed for the darker quadrant where the ground has apparantly sunk. Maybe there were other people there who have since perished. The foreground contains a dark impression, maybe an object from the wreckage. The aquatic color is eerie and mysterious. Almost feel like a giant swamp monster will soon rise to finish its prey. Maybe that's not ground at all but rather the monster.
