This collection of images seeks to capture and convey the feeling of euphoria, and the impulsive desire to cling to that feeling as it slowly starts to fade in the afterglow. The carnival setting provides the perfect backdrop of thrill rides and bright neon that encapsulates feelings of heightened elation, while the elongated streaks of light symbolize the desperation to hold onto that feeling as long as possible. Lastly, the exaggeratedly raised black point level provides a general haze to the image, creating a visual barrier that separates the viewer from the subject and causes the image to present more like a borrowed or second hand experience that solicits replication.
