The Wrong Way
The Wrong Way This photo illustrates a road formed by heroin that leads to a vigil light that symbolizes the death. This kind of vigil light is used in Greece to commemorate a dead person. The vigil light is green and it could mean green traffic light to death for drug users. The composition created in a black background, placing the vigil light to the center and the syringe, spoon, cigarette, lighter and razor on the road formed by lines of heroin (flour). The only digital treatment was the expansion of the black background to left and right of the image, made in Photoshop by duplicating the black area.
