quite a lot of deep thought you've provoked here... but my reaction to this piece is: haha! I like the humour in your pieces too

This is very well thought out. I'm very impressed. I wish I could think of stuff like this. I'm not sure if you thought of it this way but I see a bit of irony and a lesson in this piece. I would choose the left side. Even though it's rough and not very attractive looking as the other, it's the lighter side in the end. The right side is soft grass (as in "the grass is greener on the other side") but it's shadowed making it the darker side in the end. The message I'm getting is,
"Sometimes, it's a matter of what is easy and what is right."
Well that's what I gathered in the time it took me to tear my eyes away from this excellent piece. 11 out of 10.

Clearly the plant life -- the side with less light -- is symbolic for drugs and substance abuse, something society commonly associates with darkness and a lack of morality.
The side with more light is full of rocks, showing that a stable foundation can lead to a life ripe with success, happiness, and "sunlight".
The steel beam is representative of the sort of balance beam that those who have not chosen a side must walk. It is a dirty and grungy existence which offers little but rust, while on either side of oneself one sees that balance isn't necessary but that the easier choice is simply to step down and accept either light or dark, yet all the meanwhile the decision to not pick sides keeps you safe from both parties.
And in no way am I over analyzing this for comedic effect.

thanks for the analyze
though it's not the same for me. as the light part is quite dry, in opposite of the dark one, more fertile
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Well, one could argue that it is in fact the same. With the rocks being safe, stable, yet dry.

Awesome shot.
And, well, the grass does look greener on the one side...

wow, this is really creative. Where did you get the question mark from? I love the lighting and framing in this shot too
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
the question mark is in fact a hook for some trainstation electric wire.
the white dot was there
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I wondered what the hook could be, and now you mention it, I can see it.
And as for the white dot - it may be simple, but I love the way you use what's already there and take things that weren't, and put them together. That is an attribute of a true artist
