Description
Is it possible you are the one?
Did you decide the color of your pill?
Is the world making any sense to you?
Would you follow the rabbit is you see it?
Do you see green letters dropping all around you?
Do you find yourself dreaming of Carrie-Anne Moss?
Have you ever eaten soup then realized that there is no spoon?

I'm sorry, but if the answer is YES to any of these questions... You are infected with the Matrix effect. Seek help in your local Blockbuster.

This super reminds me of the Kid's Story from the Animatrix. If it's JUST the Matrix Trilogy, then yeah, I get what you mean. Doesn't really connect.
But if you've seen the Animatrix, there's an origin story about Kid from the Matrix. In it he escapes from his school, and there's a seen of him running down the hall. That's what this piece of art makes me think of.

Wow!
When I saw this image in my message centre, it really struck me. The colours and contrast!

I really like the concept behind this photo (just like all your other photos) where you conceptualize an ordinary photo and make it mean so much more.

The contrasting colours in the background (orange/blue) creates the surreal effect in this photo. It really makes the silhouette stand out. The balance of the subject and background is almost perfect.

The frames on the walls really add to the geometry of this piece, enhancing the perspective portrayed by the 'converging' walls.

Did you try any other poses?
I think the pose of the model in this picture looks a little unnatural, but besides that, I think this image is perfectly executed.

Keep up the amazing work Gilad!
Regards,
A.

Let me guess? You based this image on a episode of the animatrix.

Excellent photography work, here! Good lighting effects! But I don't see how this relates to The Matrix.

כמה כשרון
תגיד, איך אתה מגיע לצבעים האלה? זה בצילום או בעריכה אחרי?

איך בצילום?
התחלתי ללמוד צילום אבל יש לי מצלמה דמויית SLR
בלי פילטרים או משו אז אני מאמינה שאני לא יכולה ליצור את הצבעים המדהימים האלה בתמונה

gilad In reply to gozlanit [2009-06-03 06:55:43 +0000 UTC]

יש המון פרמטרים שמשפיעים. WB וחשיפה, וגם פילטרים במקרים מסויימים, ושימוש נכון בתאורה (טבעית ופלאשים

Incredible. I don't know how you do these things. But, as I was looking through the thumbnails in my watch, I saw this, and before I looked at who's work it is, I knew I would find it is you. You have such an eye for pattern and emotion and color . . . all combined. Beautiful!!!!!

And then what you write to go with it....or is the photo to go with the words?

LTartandphotography [2009-05-04 07:26:02 +0000 UTC]

I think this photo is very strong!
The concept is great.

I like how you have the repetition of the shapes throughout the image (frames on the wall, squares on the roof, the checked tiles) and the fact that they continue towards the center of the image. It brings your eye in to see the main subject of your image. i like it
And i like the many contrasts in the photo too.. from the colours in the background to the silhouettes.
Beautiful image keep up the great work!

When I frist looked at this picture I thought about hospita... Don't know why really.but now when I watch it its remind me more& more about school. I like contrast of colors here - this bordo walls whit yellow ceiling. And this guy pose - somebody mentioned here about MJ's effect which I agree. Good job
