This photo by Grace Weston appeals to me in many different ways. I think this photo is interesting because it is called "Happy Hour" but there is a headless man and a bad storm in the window. He has work clothing on and an alcoholic drink, so I assume that he came home from a long day of work. It is called happy hour because of the alcoholic drink. Sometimes people drink to try to calm themselves from hardship or stress. So the man is lost in work and the world and the world is in destruction around him but he is drinking to try to find himself again, calming himself.

The photo also has many different elements. On the walls there is a cherry pattern, which gives color and some crisp accents. There is unity within the man. The man's clothing matches and all leads to himself as a whole, a center point. There is varierty because many elements are expressed. Unity and pattern. These two elements are puzzle pieces with each other to make variety.
