Perspective
The lake of ambition reveals only the light and the dark of possibilities but never its depth.
Focus
Illusion alters our reality, alters our perception, and ultimately our fate.
Seriality
“Solitude is a chosen separation for refining your soul. Isolation is what your crave when you neglect the first.” – Wayne Cordeiro
Zoom
Do numbers qualify our soul, or quantify our shell?
First-person perspective
In this mockery of “education”, the deeper it gets, the wider the lie.
Wide-angle
Only one of the many would see a beam of light rather than a wall of height.
Skewed angle
Why do I see a hangman’s knot when others told me it’s a life buoy.
View frame
Prosperity is not what we see, it is what we feel.
Crop
Some say perseverance is a prison, I say we are the prisoners of perseverance.
Contrast
If fear is the agent of death, then loneliness shall be its assassin.
Bird’s eye view
A girl gets a rich man, a woman makes her man rich.
Worm’s eye view
Darkness masters the art of seduction, mankind succumbs to the seduction of darkness.
This photograph was taken at the alleyway of the wet-market, hence the subject matter is the claustrophobic urban environment which depicts the interplay of the imbalance of light and dark, and posture of men. A worm’s eye view is used to showcase the narrowness of the space, as well as illustrating the sense of suppression and overwhelming pressure in which mounded the city. The man can be interpreted as both the protagonist and the antagonist of the photograph; however, he is victimized by the corrupted nature of capitalism; addition to alcohol, drugs, prostitution, and spending, hence the shadings over his facial expressions symbolizes the dehumanization and objectification of a diminished individual.

Great poetic captions! You have a great eye for very interesting shots, but work on the message in the photos so they really mean what you write in the caption, without the viewers having to even read.
