About the image
"Although on the surface it was a typical pop song about love won and lost, the lyrics asked ‘was it a sin to be with some one else so soon after a break up?’, turning the usual pedestrian pop fare on its head. So a different approach to the break-up of boy and girl was needed.

"We wanted to suggest that one of the parties was out of the picture, i.e., had left the frame, walking from the edge of a cosy picture of togetherness into the real world of loneliness. It seemed a novel but poetic way of showing boy-leaves-girl. The sadness of separation seemed heightened both by the wintry sun slanting across the dunes, and by the sharp edges of the broken frame." 

Release Notes:
Storm created a series called "20/20" comprised of 20 of his favorite images in limited editions of only 20 pieces (plus 2 Artist Proofs) each. Most certainly a play on the phrase "20/20" referring to perfect vision, the set was designed to showcase some of the pieces he valued most, including many of his more obscure album cover images.
