Body of Work > HOLLAND

When the sun casts long shadows, as it does in this image, that means it's either morning or early night. The morning sun has a crisp and cool light to it, that you can see on the houses on the right. This, contrasted with the empty road that is in full shadow, gives the feeling that something is about to begin. Combine that feeling, with the curve of the road and no knowing if a bike or car is about to round the corner helps to give this image tension.
