January 30, 2012The wideness & the lonesomeness accompany all the time. And they never looked better, my friend!

January 30, 2012Clean and tidy everything in the image may be, but the atmosphere of desolation and loneliness is emphasised by the flock of birds, has been nicely captured- even if it wasn’t intended!

February 17, 2012When i see shots like this I so wish I could hop on a plane and spend some time on walkabout in your country. It has a veritable treasure trove of images waiting to be discovered, I think mainly due to its overwhelming size.
In my country the past has been swallowed up by the constant demand of today and tomorrow, hence the echoes of yesteryear are no longer there.
In case you hadn’t guessed I do love this.
Frida
February 21, 2012Lovely composition and I take the quote with me.
