Elstad 9 Posted April 9, 2014 Are they going back to their roots or is that the root of all evil :=} Many philosophical questions here. As well as... What may be just over the horizon.-r- Link to comment
AJBart 9 Posted April 9, 2014 The people on the left seem to have a divine drive to reach the Holy tree while the individual on the right seems to be making his journey in stride. Much to think about here Pierre!! AJ Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 9, 2014 Raymond, Let's say that I had enough of that quasi medieval knight, ha! Thank you for your short contemplation and first of all for your precious visit! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 9, 2014 AJ, There are many other ways to travel, who says that they are coming from far away, maybe they are living one mile from the holy tree! Thank you for your contemplation too! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 9, 2014 Thank you, Drew! I also think it is very good! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 9, 2014 Thank you, Maria! I also think the red car IS better, but I decided to put there two small cars of different ages! To make the picture timeless, ha! PDE Link to comment

Jack McRitchie 150 Posted April 9, 2014 Sometimes you come up with the most surprising combinations and juxtapositions. The contrast between the colorful modern cars, the strolling man and a tree right out of the Brothers Grimm kind of whipsaws you back and forth. Link to comment
michaellinder 16,612 Posted April 9, 2014 Humanity on a collision course with technology . . . Only the wisdom of nature intervening here will be able to resolve the conflict. After all, the roots of technology and homo sapiens are much more shallow than those of nature. It's sad that the lone human in the frame can't see how deep those roots really go. And, yes, the most primitive side of me doesn't mind worshipping nature. My best always,michael Link to comment
luda_luda 0 Posted April 10, 2014 Hi Pierre, you brought us the tree of life to contemplate. A life of contrast for me of course. In the past people use to walk, this was a very good habit that we change for a bad habit, we want to do all by car, easy life, not exercise whatsoever, we even want the parking lot more close to the store so we don't have to walk. Also, I see in this tree of life all benefits that nature have to offer us for our good living, but we just change its benefits and beauty for a jungle of concrete in which we find all this fancy cars, but not bikes to help us to keep healthy, a life where we struggle for more and more material things, but not for the beauty of nature, its calmness and peace to our souls, things that we can get just by walking and contemplating nature were this tree of life is locate it. I go with nature, yes I like your tree of life!Warmest regards,LuDa Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 10, 2014 Hey, Richard, You are very consistent with your precise naming of the qualities in one short sentence! Thank you, my friend! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 10, 2014 Whipsaw isn't in my dictionary, Jack! I will understand it as whipping the viewer which is quite a flattering remark, thank you for that! Ha! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 10, 2014 Hey Mark! I hope it is as you say, thank you for your visit and quite a nice comment! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 10, 2014 Michael, You found a very simple and short explanation, interpretation of my work which no one is in position to oppose! Good idea and other will accept that! Thank you for your continuous help with solving the problem of what the artist wished to say matter! I always have that problem as you know! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 278 Posted April 10, 2014 Thank you, Luisa! You turned my holy tree into a tree of life which may come to the same on the end! I once walked 50km in one day and about 10 years ago used to bike 50km per day, every single day and on the weekends even more! Others made me lazy, those with the cars who don't even know how to use them! PDE Link to comment
