Lowenthal’s scene of Buffy the vampire slayer is depicted predominately in different shades of red and blue. The use of these two contrasting colours gives the scene a striking, dramatic nature, which guides the eye across the image. Furthermore, the two colours are used to convey a message of separation. An example of this is the vampire in the frontmost of the scene shown illuminated with red light,  unlike Buffy, who is almost entirely blue. This separation of the two characters by colour depicts not only a divide but plays on colour associations; Typically the colour red is associated with evil while the colour blue is associated with good. As thus the use of colour plays adds to the storytelling of Lowenthal’s image, representing a fight of good vs bad.
