I took this photo on the evening of March 3, 2014, I was looking out my window from my apartment in Brooklyn, snapping pictures of people and inanimate objects, it was getting dark and I noticed the moon was impending from the sky and I found this scenery to be captivating. I truly admire the distinguishing contrast between the sky and the trees because the colors seem contradictory but converging and the clouds look almost artificial, as if they are purple. Personally, it personifies the inexhaustible universe embodying that nature forbids boundaries, with the moon symbolizing a departure and yet a beginning. I was adamant towards the inclusion of the street lighting because I figured it threw the picture off, but I later appreciated the paradox it established. The frame excludes the busy street below, by passers, and the park in which the trees descended from.
