The Simple Path: A Senior Surreal Photo by Calvin Camin (2017)

With my surrealist project I wanted to show how when we set out on a seemingly simple path, the outcome can become impossibly complex. The ladder represents the path that can be taken by anyone but as it changes into a tree, all the paths branch out and serve as a source of unlimited possibilities. As the tree/ladder fades from colored to black&white, I wanted to show as the further we stay on a path, the more simple our decisions become as we only strive to make it towards the end where our true ambitions lie.
