A mother at the center with her kid on her right shoulder. The kid's hand is embracing the mother and i can clearly see the kid's fingers on the mother's neck. A third mysterious figure is standing behind the kid. All of them trying to cross through the iron gates that firmly surround them...or  just i had too much drink last night and ain't sober yet.

This image needs an intensive observation. It is not important what it is, but what it is doing with your imagination. A timeless image!

Another excellent imagination inspiring image Jack. I can find agreement with all the above but personally lean towards the mother and child also. Great catch.

Michail's reading indeed. Somehow, I don't manage now to see something else either, except for one thing.

Gorgeous colours, but above all the dark-grey is rendered superbly beautiful. What drew me to the thumbnail, was this sense of lovely muted colours, and the larger view not only confirms it, but adds to it with lovely tonality.

A very rich photo - much more than a 'Transitional Form', I'd say - because that somehow seems to say there is something before this, and after. This itself would then be... fleeting? glue? a passing phase? It's got the ability for much more longevity than that.

A theophany!  You should call the news.  Build a shrine.  Print up t-shirts.  Sell coffee mugs.  Fleece the flock.....

 

Oh, wait.....you're not in America.....

 

Never mind.  Nice abstraction.

Hi Jack: Back from a long trip, and a equally long while away from PN. Usually, the first thing I do is visit your portfolio, and always for a good reason and some mental gym. This image is a true work of art requiring a very special perception and conception. Artistic and elegant, the thumbnail initially suggested a modern painting of a female torso (again your images spur projection in the psychological sense). Upon closer inspection, I relish on the textures, hues, colors and lines. Finally, a very warm hello to you and my personal regards.
