The Solitary Splash

A highly detailed, realistic photograph of a rainy cobblestone street in Paris, rendered entirely in grainy black and white. The historic buildings, the wet pavement reflecting the cloudy sky, and the distant Eiffel Tower are all soft shades of grey and deep charcoal black. Walking down the center of the empty street is a person viewed from behind, holding a single, vividly bright crimson-red umbrella. The umbrella is the only source of color in the entire piece, saturated and striking, with tiny, glassy raindrops glistening on its fabric.
