Why is it 'unsettling'? Well, of course it can be produced in PoV,
imagination is the key. Tim has captured it in a rather more vague(?) way
than the stereotypical space rocket or train coming out of a tunnel, and I
commend him for that.
I like it. It's an image where you have to search for the meaning...

I must confess, I started out just copying the idea of the attached
image, from a one-or-two-second shot in the last episode of the anime
Paradise Kiss...I rather liked the idea of just the shadow, as it's very
sexy and sensual...
Doing just the shadow of a Poser figure also has a significant
advantage: it allows you to ignore all the flaws that are visible if you
directly look at the mesh.
Since I just did a shadow-themed image, I re-used the scene
(er...background and sphere-with-image-for-radiosity's-sake, at least),
but it felt too plain...I decided to add some pictures on the wall to
give it variety...but I'm ever one for subtlety and significance, even
if it's not so subtle when you think about it, so I was wandering my
image collection looking for something that both looked nice and was
relevant, hence Waterhouse's 'Pandora' and Demotivators' 'Mistakes' (I
could have used 'Dysfunction', but that, I dunno, seems harsh in the
context of the rest of the image). Finally, I added some subdued red
spotlights to augment things a bit.
