Describe
The photograph depicts icebergs floating on arctic, calm water. Large icebergs in the background of the picture float in the sea and are clearly visible.
The photograph was probably taken at dawn or dusk because the red rays of the light peep through the arctic sky. The water on which the icebergs float is not frozen. The picture shows two chunks of ice detached from the main floating iceberg. The photograph was shot in a polar region where the icebergs are melting because of global warming.
Analyze
The photograph presents a panoramic view of the Arctic ice. The vivid play of light and color in the picture brings out the striking separation of the detached mass from the main iceberg. The light from the illumined sky assumes a shade of light pink that reflects on the icebergs.
The warm red ray of the sun falls from the sky into the water that creates a pleasant nook in the cold picture. This reflection of the ray is strikingly bright, especially when it falls on the ice-cold water. The shade of blue on the iceberg and the darker blue gray water creates an impression of frostiness.
The picture has a grainy texture and the deaden finish produces a vintage look. Natural light is used to illuminate the photograph and capture the true colors of nature. The picture is shot in low light since sunlight is scant in the polar regions, even at daytime.
The icebergs appear to be cobalt blue in color that is reflected in the water. The gray areas that appear in the sky demonstrate the lack of sunlight in the polar region. The stark white icebergs reflecting on the piles of snow create the silhouette for the objects.
Interpret gray
The picture was taken in the Arctic or the Antarctic region. The polar regions are usually covered with perennial ice. However, because of global warming, ice has started to melt in the region. The sky is reminiscent of a hint of sun, visible through the light reddish tinge, indicating that it is probably the time for sunset or sunrise. The red rays of the sun peek through the gray clouds in the sky and fall vigorously into the deep blue water tinting it with deep scarlet.
The abundance of blue and gray in the picture creates a serene atmosphere that this lifeless region beholds. The calm and peace reverberate through the pale blue and gray colors, abundant in the photograph. The sun peeking through the sky brings in a hint of warmth and creates a possibility of life in this frozen desert.
The calm and serenity in the picture provide solace to the eyes that are accustomed to the intensity of city life. The photograph paints a story of escape from the chaos of modern life and acts as a warning to the possible depletion of this paradise owing to callous effluence of man.
Judge
The landscape uses low lights to beautifully depict the icebergs. The stark white ice against the dark gray background creates a striking contrast amid the white ice and the dark waters. I like the photograph because of its natural light and the focus on the rift between the two icebergs that demonstrate the melting process.
The photograph is an excellent example of the serenity in the polar area as well as a clear depiction of the possible melting process that has started in the region. It successfully depicts the serenity of the polar region and the danger that global warming poses to it.
