This photo is my interpretation of the short story "The Yellow Wallpaper". The book is about a crazy woman who writes about her insanity while living in a rented house. The room in which she is staying in has horrid yellow wallpaper, which feeds her insanity. To represent the story, i used a notebook with writing and a pencil to symbolise her telling her story. She was an author and she loved to write but her husband banned h
er from doing so, which is why the pencil tip is broken. It also shows how her spirit has been broken. The withered flowers also have a double meaning. They are yellow to represent the wallpaper, but they are also withered to show her withering soul. For this photo i used the blur overlay effect, but instead of overlay I used soft lighting. I also burned the edges slightly to get a darker, more ominous feeling.
