This one, like most of Nikolas' work is full of emotion. He has effectively vignetted the subject giving an impression that perhaps the darkness is lifting. In any event, the effect draws the viewer to the subject, with the surrounding well saturated deep greens and very dark trees. It's up to the viewer to decide if the brightness and the subject looking at the sky has psychological significance, and if so, is he looking at the end of this small bright patch, to be consumed by darkness, or is he seeing the cloud dissipate, and waiting for a brighter future.
Knowing his great work, we know there is a meaning, but he wants us to get in his head and figure it out ourselves, the way he questions everything in his life. I can't criticize him for making us work for it. This is yet another of his works that we will re-visit often. The only criticism I have, is that the subject is so small, I had to use other clues to ascertain that it was Nikolas himself. Knowing him, this may have been intentional and maybe just one more way to screw with us!

Oh goodness I love this one. Your crispness compared to the blurriness of the trees... the colors, the lighting... Gosh, there's so much I could say about the composition of this piece. It's probably my new favorite from you. :]
