Dark Darker Make Me Lighter

True story of the photo : (written by the artist herself) This photo could be an ode to Hitchcock... Always afraid of his work... as a child i mean. The story of this pic is very ordinary...in a way...I was 
working all day as always, and it was about 5:30 at evening, and i had a coffee break for about...2 minutes! I got off my car and was ready to enter Starbucks...and then! Above my head... was a Hitchcock scene! I couldn't resist! I let all of my bags down and started shooting, and that's the result. It's an ode to me to fears we all have...

Got my point of view?


My story for the photo :  Colors were living in a world in which they were allowed to marry each other and also have children. Many many years ago, Blue's parents died in a washing accident, so his grandfather Purple took him under his wings. As Blue grew up, he turned into a very handsome young boy. All the girls in his high school had a crush on him, except White...who was a mysterious girl came from another town. She was staying in a private dormitory, nobody knew who her parents where and she was very smart, brilliant, hard working and pretty. There were other extremely pretty girls around, like Red, Pink and Orange but White used to have something different. A pure look, a restful posture...Blue was keeping an eye on her but she never seemed interested in him. She was spending time on her own, and Blue was dying to talk to her. One day, he suddenly appeared on her way and asked her out. White, of course, refused him but Blue never gave up. He kept bothering White, just for a drink or anything else. She insisted on turning him down but Blue was deeply in love, so it wasn't possible for him to move on. Finally, he went in front of the dormitory she used to stay and poured himself on the floor...with a phrase; 'I'm dark...I'm getting darker. You're my light, make me lighter.' Everything started like that...White accepted all his requests from then on, and the greatest love of Sky + Clouds began. Life was perfect at the beginning, they were the sweetest couple of the Color World and their work around sky was impressive. They had 3 children named as Rain, Snow and Fog. On a day of many days, a new color visited the town. Her name was Gray. She was an attractive and talented woman, but her inner self wasn't that bright. She used to get jealous with all the happy couples, especially if the husband fits into her taste! As she saw Blue at the marketplace, the decision was already maden. First she rented a place for herself, which is very close to Blue's/White's house. Then she visited White, presenting herself as the new neighbor and it all got started...Gray was very professional, White was so pure, and Blue was a male at the end. He started to pay attention to Gray, and by baby steps Gray ruined their happiness. White was so sad, and she moved into her son Snow's place...after a while Gray stepped in her place and been Blue's new wife. The Clouds turned into gray, and because Blue is under Gray's control, also the Sky turned into Gray. White's kids Rain and Snow were really angry at their father but it was impossible for them to resist Gray's power, she made them work harshly almost everyday. Fog was a little boy back then, so that he liked Gray. He kept doing what she was saying, and Gray was sending him to everywhere like a slave. As Gray took the lordship of Sky, she put Rainbow and all the other colored creatures sent by other colors to Sky Family under control. She broke Rainbow into pieces, she tied all the little birds on steel sticks...and she let her own pets hung around like gray-black crows, eagles...As Blue realized what he had done, that White was his true love, he tried to fight Gray to take everything back but it wasn't that easy. All his struggles let him down and he finally asked Humans' help. The Leader Human felt so sad for them, and he told Blue that only a Child can solve his problem. Blue stayed on Earth for a while just to find a Child who can help him and he did eventually...the solution for all his problems, the hope for the old colorful days of Sky, the little hands that might free White's soul and send away all the fears was named as 'Flipper'!
