caught in a dream - a photo on Flickriver

caught in a dream

            I photographed this while I was in Hawaii last year. I remember coming across this section of a park while I was location scouting, and I knew immediately I would be back to take a photo. Once my work ended I did go back, which was perfect because I had time to think a lot about the message I wanted to send by photographing this area. 

The vines were such a natural nest, and the subject hung so low in it, that I immediately envisioned someone dangling from them, captured by them, cocooned. We are all so often caught in a dream, and this is my way of physically showing that. To be lifted from our sleep, to be elevated and transported - that is what it is to dream.
