Description
This is the first of several shots that I took while in Adelaide over the weekend. This is a laneway off a main street in Adelaide city centre. It grabbed my attention as I walked past, the dilapidated building, the door, the lone milk crate.
It gave me a creepy feeling, even though it was midafternoon.
So, I put the powers of post processing to work, blanched out colour, selective colour and contrast adjustment on door and a bit of lighting effect. The contrast of dark and light aids the scary mood of this one.
This gave me the feeling that someone was being held here, against their will. Within reach of the public, but so well hidden, no one knows they are there. This moment is when the search party looking for them for days, maybe weeks, finally gets the clue that leads them here.
Too late?
