Comment on photo: I love how the lighting and the impact of the title contribute to the emotion behind the photo.

Comment on category: Horror isn't just about visually scaring. "Black Swan" was primarily psychological horror which acted out on fears in a different way. I think Apathy is a concept that is terrifying.
Though that's just my take on it since the discussion is occurring on this deviation anyways. The category doesn't matter much to me

You should report it for miscategorization so I can see how long it takes dA to respond.

I think that it would fit into the conceptual photography category. I sense a message behind your photograph although I can't bring myself to explain it...

avalanchepark [2012-04-14 01:11:44 +0000 UTC]

well , to me this shot is beautiful and not macabre. I actually find a lot of warm color in your whites.

I think the response is "if people don't care too bad for them". You should care because you want a world of some particular form. I guess you look for a community of like souls and try to make it in one place first. I have been blessed to live in a reality I enjoy so the apathy of others isn't an issue.

Or alternately , withdraw into yourself and make lots and lots of great photos :>)

avalanchepark In reply to avalanchepark [2012-04-14 02:14:51 +0000 UTC]

so I went out to the popular gallery to see how you did and on the 8 hour you were way out in front. I don't think I was the only person who didn't get the joke behind this being in 'Horror and Macabre'.

If people don't give a sh*t then why should we?

This was I think all the time. If they don't care about the shit I do, or the shit that I go through, then why do I?

Nice picture, btw.

Horror & Macabre - Looks pretty scary to me!

You know, you really should try to actually produce an image for this category and also legit images for DA's other categories. I think you will have fun pushing the limits of your skill and creativity.

JeanFan In reply to PavSys [2012-04-13 19:51:48 +0000 UTC]

Of course (said sarcastically)

I agree. But at this point, most people just don't care. And frankly, I'm getting tired of caring too If Plato has taught us anything, it's that trying to inform the apathetic is a futile mission. No wonder it's legal for congressmen to do insider trading and okay for billionaires to pay only 10% in taxes. They're not just exploiting the loopholes of the system; they're exploiting the apathy of the general public.
