Pierre, this is a fascinating piece of work. The blending of real-world elements (sky) and electronic design is wonderful..... it is a merging of fantasy and reality, which I think is at the heart of most of your work.... but this one is exceptional - simple composition combined with intricate design; wonderful color palette; great perspective, dramatic contrast of light and dark, of soft (clouds) and hard (stone "statues"). Another one for my favorites gallery.

Very nicely done Pierre.  You are the master of such works. Reminds me of Dali at times.  You do love this Paletter of colors and they work very well for your images.  Congrats, done it again Wizard!  Sincerely, Gail

I love the way you work the color harmonies on this another masterpiece. The edge of the base is so perfectly placed as if the viewer is drawned toward to another world.

Great Art and pleasant fantasy, always pleasure to view and enjoy your work, they have a stile of their own and always very well planned and executed.

This is a great example of your high skill and  taste in the subjects you present, thank you my friend for sharing it and wishing you all of the best.

Rashed, I'm very flattered and also awarded by your inputs on my overall work, thank you very much, I appreciate it a lot!

William, they are gourds, special kind of pumpkins which is being usually hollowed and used as a water pots for the croppers, but as I understand not long time ago (by the owner of these on the picture) that they also have some religious meaning!

I think that they are relics by origin from the pagan period which have been accepted by the Orthodox Church. It was a common religious compromise in the time when the Cristian religion were established on my home ground and elsewhere!

P.S. Yes, they were not hollowed, but they sounded and weighted as empty, I don't know how it is possible and didn't ask!
