I like how the colours separate the image in two halves. Although I wonder whether that's done in camera or postprocessing 
Symbolically, we could assume the red part to be the past, the greenish-blueish part the future and the middle the title of the image, the »Now«. Or vice-versa for right-to-left writing languages (which I'm sure Polish isn't, though). However, that leaves the tree, and thus the focal point of the image, either slightly in the past or slightly in the future. Which might make the message »Focus on things about a month in the past, or a bit in the future«. The latter might be more useful, usually.
I'm interpreting too much here, right?
I still like the image, and its colours. Although I do wonder what that thing is where the tree is in. Wait a minute. The tree is not in that thing at all, it's just focus trickery! It's in front of the tree! Kasia, deceiver of eyes! Trickster of minds!
Okay, then I just wonder what that thing is, without relation to the tree.

The original picture was separated into two halves as well, though more by value and saturation than colours: Now - original
I enhanced that effect, I did not make it from scratch.
Of course you are. And I am, too. I made it all up as I went along.

Oh, the different colours can still be readily seen in the original picture, just a bit less saturation.
So we both made up stuff, essentially guessing or lying to ourselves 
And a bench! That's a surprise. My first thought was something vaguely cone-shaped around the tree. Then I noticed that it might be in front of the tree, in fact. So something vague cone-shaped in front of the tree. But only now I noticed that it's actually wooden planks receding into the distance. In hindsight it was actually fairly obvious, especially with depth of field. But maybe my eyes are just easily-deceived
