NYC’s Infrared Central Park is Transformed Into a Majestic Alienesque Dreamscape by Paolo Pettigiani

Italian photographer and graphic designer Paolo Pettigiani’s recent visit to Central Park’s full bloom in spring led to a surreal, whimsical, and otherworldly experience. The New York treasure its known as the greenest spot in the Big Apple, but Peggitiani’s wand transformed it into a dreamlike passage from Dr. Seuss’ most imaginative tales.

The subtle red hue creates a stunning, sharp and intriguing contrast, which makes the picturesque and one of most romantic sceneries in the world appear as an alienesque beauty from another planet. You can buy Pettigiani’s art prints in his Society6 shop.

Also available as canvas prints, T-shirts, Phone cases, Throw pillows, Tapestries and More!

“Another odd feature of the parallel universe is that although it is invisible from this side, once you are in it you can easily see the world you came from. Sometimes the world you came from looks huge and menacing, quivering like a vast pile of jelly; at other times it is miniaturized and alluring, a-spin and shining in its orbit. Either way, it can’t be discounted.

How to Keep a Reader Interested During Slower Parts of the Story

thewritingrealm:

A writing guide requested by galaxys–end

While the main plot is building, as a writer you still must keep the reader interested.

Expand your subplots.
Consider character relationships. Is your MC fighting with their best friend? Are the siblings having a break through?
Consider romantic relationships.
When achieving their goal becomes slow, does your character lose faith? Focus? Hope? What is their mental state like?
Does your character have a good support system? Are they lonely? Can your character motivate themselves, even when times get tough?

How is your character dealing with what’s going on in their life emotionally?Are they happy? Grieving? Depressed? How are they coping? Do they have support from those in their life?

Is your character physically well?
Stress can have detrimental affects on health. Is your character run down? How is the character’s health in relation to their goal?
Consider reworking the plot. If the other aspects of your story can’t uphold a reader’s attention, maybe you should change how the plot works.
