This certainly took me a while, why else would it take five minutes to save in photoshop? :lmao:

Anyways, this started out as a conceptual piece but then I started taking notice that it may be a bit in a darker mood than intentional. Originally the lighthouse was a lighter and there was text. I believed this gave the audience to quick an answer and screwed up my image a lot. The idea of the project I was trying to place in people's mind was that you can make a difference in someone's life. What you do can have an affect, either crumble them or show them a brighter day.



The light source is an old lighthouse down in Galveston. The tree and land comes from George Bush Park. The girl you see is the lovely , so big props go out to her. I held this project back because I was kind of lazy picking out a model or a person to pose so one day, I just happened to stumble across her stockimage and edited it photoshop. The first time I've used a stock image really.

Edited: Sharpened a bit.

Yeah, I know. Despite the fact that I lowered the resolution and darkened the atmosphere, she's supposed to be blurry. ^^;
