Montage 2

With this second montage, I again brought back the idea of finding something important show up in the most unimaginable places. For this piece, I chose to portray the idea that new life can "sprout up" in any type of situation. With this idea, I decided to photograph a background where it seemed no new life could grow from. With the addition of the budding plant, I believe I depicted life being created in an unimaginable place. Color in this image is similar to that of Montage one, where I placed emphasis on the very green bud. The rest of the image and background give that feeling of infertility in the land.

Montage One

In this montage, I chose to depict "finding love anywhere." I believe my rendition of using simply a symbol of one leaf shaped like a heart describes this theme perfectly. Being that there is only one leaf, it expresses the randomness of finding love during life. Also, the background scene I photographed looks glomy and desolate to add power to the leaf. The meaning of this contrast in beauty and blan gives an even stronger meaning to the power of finding love in even unimaginable places. With the color in this montage, the background and tree create that gloomy tone. This adds emphasis to the leaf, which has a pop of color, to again express the theme I portrayed.
