Cantrell took a series of snapshots in the aftermath of a New York-base blizzard, revealing images of Central Park as it was coated in snow by the Nemo storm. Cantrell has imbued his snapshots with his own intense emotions and take on New York City. The [black and white coloring](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) resonated with his feelings, finishes that he believed "just fitted better with the feelings I had the last couple of days." These dual tones are moreover consistent with his interest in life before the advent of technology, "...I kept on having flashbacks to how I imagine life was before technology. Back when people were less distracted and enjoyed the now. " He has targeted this very now via these pictures. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Emotional Photography:** Opportunity to capture and express intense emotions through photography. - **Black and White Aesthetics:** Exploration of dual-tone color schemes in visual representation. - **Nostalgia and Simplicity:** Rediscovering the appeal of a simpler life before the digital age. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Photography:** Incorporating emotional storytelling techniques into modern photography practices. - **Art and Design:** Utilizing black and white aesthetics to evoke specific moods and emotions in visual arts. - **Wellness and Mindfulness:** Creating products or experiences that evoke nostalgia and simplicity for mental well-being. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digital City-Inspired Art Works](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-central-station.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [Miniature Artful Hip-Hop Landmarks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/danny-cortes.md) - [Travel Photography Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour.md) - [Lightning-Inspired Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bright-light-shining.md) - [Dramatic Doomsday Bunker Images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alastair-philip-wiper.md) - [Immersive Light Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spencer-finch.md) - [Immersive Spring-Themed Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colors-in-bloom.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md)
