These images were inspired by the song journey's end by the dub step group Blackmill. This was one of the first songs that came to my mind when the assighnment was announced. The images were chosen to symbolize certain elements. They provide a visual element to the music. When I listend to it It made me feel a huge admiration of God's creation's from the complex plant to majestic mountains. Before the dub step starts the music is soft and starts to build up. This segment of the song caused me to reflect on small plants in nature due to the simplicity. Once the dub-step began, immediately mountains came to my mind because this part of the song has a majestic feel to it. Because their are echoey sounds in the song, it makes me visualize cold weather in the settings I just described. I am not 100% sure why the song makes me think of a winter setting. The pictures are arranged from morning to evening, showing the journey of the day. The desaturated picture was included to represent the bridge of the song. The picture was taken at the time of day when the sun appears to go down. It bridges the gap between the day and evening pictures. The picture was desaturated to visually show a stasis in the bridge. You will notice that the second to last picture has a church in the middle ground. The steeple points upwards towards the heavens. This piece was included to show how man always should look towards heaven as he goes through the journey of life. The photo mosaic concludes with a close up picture of a icicle hanging from a parking garage at night, showing the "Journey's end". All pictures were taken on BYU campus and on the way back from Idaho on a work trip.
