Symbolism and creativity. Congratulations.

Welcome Vicente!

 

When everybody insists on symbolism I will be that creative to invent symbols and hidden meaning for this picture according to my creativity, ha!

 

Thank you for dropping by, Vicente!

Hi Pierre, the black and white alongside the march towards the unknown gives this an ominous look...but they seem very happy...nice work my friend...regards....David

Really beautiful!!

Come on, David, you too?!

 

I only see happy and careless people aiming somewhere! How can something with this brightness and shining sun be ominous! But, if you say so, it must be so!

 

Thank you for your precious contribution, my friend!

Hello, Alberto!

 

I've heard from someone that you had moved to Flicr?! Are you back to the good old Photo.net now! I'm glad if you are!

 

Thank you for your kind comment!

Hi Pierre,

Another fascinating image from you! I like the b+w very much...the toning is especially appealing. My only issue with it is that my dear lizard friend gets lost in the tree a bit where he really stood out in the color version.

I thought of you the other day. There was a great article in the New York Times about photography. Some of the discussion of new directions in the 21st century reminded me of your work.

All the best,

Tim

Hi, Timothy!

 

You are right about the lizard, but if you view larger size it's easier to spot him! After looking around for a while, that is! He is anyway just an observer, ha!

 

About "mentioning me" in New York Times I can only say that one day they will discover me, but I'm certain that I will have the Van Gogh's destiny! Ha!

 

Thank you for your visit and nice comment, my friend!

 

PDE

Great idea and creation. Black and white version adds a lot while the lizard makes it a better one. Bravo Pero za još jednu kreaciju na temu pustinje. Svako dobro!

Hvala Sretene, hvala i za posetu i za lepi komentar!

 

PDE

I agree with the first comment. Viva BW!

Viva bianco e nero, perche no!

 

Mille grazie, Maria

 

PDE

Nice concept. I like how you play with the shadows.

I love this image. It reminds me of the 1980 darkroom prints of Scott Mutter. This photograph is unique and confounding, which made me look at it for quite some time.

Jon well done.

Thank you, Rock!

 

I'm very glad you compare this montage of mine to a real B$ shot cause I made to imitate a real shot as much as possible!

Hi Pierre-Absolutely a stunning image.I'll take a shot at my thoughts of the meaning of this fine image.The two dead branches of a tree symbolizes the families dissatisfaction with their lives & decided to head off to a hopefully brighter future as symbolized with the shining sun. Visually, your creativity is superb, matched only by your technical processing skills The family appears life-like. Best Regards-Ross

Thank you Ross!

 

Nice that you found some meaning in this picture and I'm glad you like it!

 

Best regards
