O hear the ancient voices

    Yes, I love the colors and the shadows in this one. That hill with the trees along the top of it reminds me of the back of a Mohican’s head…very stylish!

    The red soil is of two minds here – as bright as the sun outside the shadow, dark and like the night within. The day will come to a close here soon, the blend of day and night yet to be reconciled – that is, until the sun sleeps for the evening…

    It looks so lovely and cool in the shadows, but hot as blazess in the sun. Bet that red dirt stains everything.

    This photo is magnificent! You caught the sun making the most brilliant colors at day’s end! The ancient voices accompany it! Very powerful imagery. (This photo could be a painting, btw.) Bravo, MMT!
