This is a shot i took in Korea where they shot the drama ‘Winter Sonata’. Can you feel the loneliness especially the tree without leaves that is leaning towards the water? Trees would be so lonely without leaves company. I think it shows the human’s fear towards loneliness as nobody like to be lonely and therefore everyone will try to lean towards somebody like friends, love, family and etc so that they won’t be lonely.
At first I wanted to make it into a black and white shots same as what I posted at devArt which you can see when you clicked on the picture. But I guess this colour suits more to portray the loneliness I captured in the picture which is a colour between sepia and b&w, so that it would possesses both the colour’s feel.
I took this shot in 2004 January when at that moment, loneliness conquered me when I went to Korea. Somehow I prefer Japan over Korea as Korea is much colder if compared to Japan. It’s so cold that it would make you feel depressed, lonely and sad. Once i saw this scenery, it’s such a perfect match to what I felt. Hence I took down this picture as remembrance to that loneliness.
I’m dedicating this to Yun as she’s having a bad time now and I hope that she could overcome her sadness as soon as possible.
