I started writing something about landscape and colours for this photograph but realised I wasn’t feeling any of it. What I feel when I look at this photo is tranquillity, a sense of peace, a sense of joy and wonder and a realisation that we are incredibly lucky to live in such a beautiful world. So why are we hell bent on destroying it? Not just nature; but each other. Why do all news stories talk about violence, destruction and discrimination? Why have we become such hateful, vengeful beasts? Why don’t we show compassion anymore? Why don’t we ever repent our actions? Is this what we are evolving into?
I wish I had more answers.
