Signpost of Confusion in Blue Sky

[Format] Landscape 3:2 gig cover, full-bleed photographic sky background with a three-dimensional signpost object, high-key commercial stock-photo finish. No watermark, no personal names. [Layout] A bright blue sky with scattered white cumulus covers the entire frame, lighter at the top and slightly greyer toward the right. A black metal post rises from the bottom edge to about two-thirds of the height, set just right of centre, and two groups of white arrow-shaped signboards branch off it. The upper group is the visual mass: five tapered boards fanning out at different heights and opposite directions, overlapping one another and the post, each with a small silver bolt collar where it clamps on. The lower group is a wide flat pair sitting almost horizontally, one pointing left and one pointing right, spanning most of the frame width with the post passing between them. Boards cast soft shadows on the ones behind them, which is the only depth cue, and the post shows slight perspective. Nothing else is in the frame. [Subject] none — no person appears. The subject is the sign itself: seven white-painted wooden arrow boards with slightly worn edges, black bevel-cut lettering, and the stacked mass of boards on a single post giving the object its weight in the centre of the frame. [Headline] One word per board, seven in total, each set in a heavy black grotesque capitals with a subtle drop shadow, sized to fill its board and tilted to match the board's angle. Reading roughly top to bottom: "LOST" on the highest board pointing right; "CONFUSED" on the longest board angling down-left; "UNSURE" on a short board slanting right just below it; "UNCLEAR" on a board angling down-left beneath that; "PERPLEXED" on a board pointing right in the lower middle; then the flat pair at the bottom reading left to right "DISORIENTED" and "BEWILDERED". All words are spaced capitals on plain white ground, with no other text anywhere in the frame. [Badges] none. [Mood] Postcard blue — azure sky, white cumulus, black type on white boards — bright, high-key and a little stock-photo generic. The black capitals carry enough weight that the individual words still read at thumbnail size, and the crossed arrows land as confusion before any single word is deciphered.
