Seeing 2013 (#4)

For your consideration:  perhaps a scene from the opening segment of an early 1970s television series, Night Gallery, an appropriately bizarre setting which served as Rod Serling's last significant pulpit.

Or perhaps, a Rorschach test?  (You decide . . . of course!)

In any case, the color red has long represented anger, passion, blood, fire, sacrifice and intensity . . . immersed in this chromatic atmosphere is an abstract form which immediately struck me as human in nature, albeit ambiguous in spatial orientation. Consequently I see a contradictory duality of both helpless falling and acutely focused fleeing.

The actual subject will remain a mystery except to those who offer their observations, thoughts, or speculations via comment (or email);  one hint is that a Macro lens was used with extremely strong back-lighting from the Sun.

Enjoy!
