This concept stock photo uses an aerial view of a freeway interchange to illustrate concepts including connection, transportation, complexity, networking and challenge. The image was composited with Photoshop. I spent over two days painstakingly selecting sections of roadway, then copying pasting sizing and rotating the pieces to fit together an ever more complex puzzle. I also had to copy, paste and position each vehicle, car and truck, and then create appropriate shadows. I believe this complicated maze of on ramps, off ramps and merging roads is a great metaphor for many of today's important issues ranging from the Internet and world wide web, to social media, to communications and connections. Another topic that this picture is well suited to represent is bandwidth and the ensuing issues. These road ways can illustrate neuron pathways, fiber optics, copper wire and social networks. This must be the most complex freeway interchange ever created...though it was created as a new photographic reality and not a real one in the sense of concrete and steel. I have another similar image that takes this one a step further, one in which the earth has been essentially paved over with freeways and roads. Such an image takes the freeway symbology and metaphor in a whole different direction; environmental issues, global custodianship, and mother earth and home planet ecology issues. Heck, these images are just plane fun to look at as well! This cloverleaf can be used to illustrate issues dealing with infrastructure, transportation issues, new road building and construction techniques, and maintenance and repair of roadways. This picture has everything form overpasses and underpasses to merging traffic and freeway signage.
