This photo was taken in June of 2020 during the Black Lives Matter movement and the rioting which led businesses to put wooden boards up to protect their glass windows and doors. Shortly after the riotings, I walked past a store with this spray-painted on and it struck out to me with all the colors. I increased the contrast on this picture to make the colors stand out more since it is an important part of the message. The color scheme would appeal to a large group of people and is very attention-grabbing. I believe this message was to show support to the LGBTQ+ community in a very chaotic time.
I like the picture you choose and the way you added context as to what led to the picture. Your choice of increasing the contrast really made the colors on the board gain my attention and it helped emphasize the message.
