This surrealism photo is called “self Reflection” Token by a artist called Vatthana V Long. This photo is seen as a man holding his face in his hand with a whole world in inside his head. The world inside his head Is also surreal with a person laying down with a wood like face. There is trees and plants with a sun in his head Like his head had a earth of its own. It can be seen that his upper body is in the sky with the cloud on his neck and sweater. Birds add a great detail to the photo flying next to his ears and neck.

This picture consist of a rusty train stop.  The train stop has 2 trains stopped one closer to the camera than the other. The train closer (train one)  to the camera has a vintage blue color kind of green. Train one also has a design of yellow making it more vibrate and matching the color of the top right roof where the sun rays can be seen peeking in. Train one can be seen Larger because of the angle the photo was took from. Its also more rugged than train two. All though the colors can be seen fade the train looks fairly in tack. train two has a white light blue color to it. It seems like it was a light blue but with the sun and time is has faded into a whiter color. You can see the rust on top of it eroding down into the the once light blue color. train two makes train two look some what soft and tender. The two trains look eroded and old  just like the actual building there in making it all look vintage. The angle it has been took from makes it look more massive making the place look some what lonely. The building looks abandon and unused. This overall picture is rugged, ad vintage.
