Homage to ‘Lost’

Just some recent captures that seem to be inspired by the TV series ‘ Lost ‘. I have watched every episode so far. The current season has been filled with unexpected plot twists and mysteries. In fact, it is probably the best since season 1.

At the beginning of the series, all of the characters start the story as passengers on an airliner. After crash landing on an island, the survivors band together to survive. When I converted the above image in my post processing software, I immediately thought of Lost. On account of its popularity among my circle of friends, and in pop culture discussions, I am sure I was influenced in the back of my mind. However, it was appropriate. There is a single airliner flying above a forest. There are no other reference points to civilization nearby, so this could be a view of their plane flying above their ultimate destination. The surreal infrared capture helps to tilt this towards a fictionalized version of reality.

Yes, that is my eye. It felt like an eye exam until I finally got the shot I wanted. Lost uses close ups of eyeballs as a transition point in many episodes. It brings you in, and places you in the perspective of the character that opens their eyes to a new situation.
