| AP photograph |
My take is that the photographer is playing on the fact the election is a few months away and that Obama and his strategists would love to have a crystal ball to tell them what lays in store for the future, but then again, I'm only a sheeple.
If this is Twilight Language (as opposed to good old-fashioned symbolism, metaphor and artistic intent), what do you suppose the message is supposed to be?

Didn't even think of the Half-Blood Prince when I titled this.
ReplyDeleteThis is undoctored? The shadows above and to the right of the orb seem odd.
ReplyDeleteI read it was undoctored on the internet, so it must be true. But seriously, that shape does look odd. Could it be the structure that s holding the light. Like a tower in a stadium, which is why it appears to be behind the orb? That would be my guess.
DeleteI'm skeptical; even it's structures holding the light, I would bet that the background were* brushed blue, but strange photos do happen.
DeleteOf course he's dressed in something that could pass for a wizard's black cape!
Any idea where the picture was taken?
And ... he's wearing a watch? People still watches?

* Should that be "were" or "was"? I have trouble with conjugating the conditional/hypothetical tense (or whatever that's called).
"Were" is best, but "was" is acceptable! And yes, I wear a watch. (A stainless steel Swatch, no less!) I think he's wearing an anorak, btw, but I have no idea of the context. I think it's strange enough to be undoctored....
