Catcher in the Rye

This is an image depicting Holden Caulfield. In the distance is the prep schools and life he is trying to leave behind. With the hectic Times Square as the background, I tried to capture the piece of mind Holden finds when he envisions himself as a "Catcher in the Rye". In one of the final scenes of the novel Holden is sitting on a bench watching his sister on the carousel and is nearly brought to tears by her beauty and innocence.

This is so cool! I love the
This is so cool! I love the image of times square, the distortion of the photograph really goes well with the tone of the novel I think. You blended the images together really well, I especially like the placement of the guy on the cliff with times square behind him and the school campus below, really neat!
