An image just taken a few yards away from “Losing it?“. Again the main feature that caught my attention was the sparse tree against the corrugated metal panels of the shed.
However, the more I looked at the scene the more the desire of man to leave his mark jumped out at me – both on the tree and the panels. It is as if nothing is sacred, man has to leave his disfiguring mark.
Overall, there is something about this image that draws me in.
What about you?

Was intrigued by numerous interpretations of the image.For me it is as if the tree has poured out its green color in its entirety to its surroundings and to the ground all over.It just gave all that it had.Thank you for sharing the picture,it was indeed thought provoking.

Thanks Shruti, great to have your input and that interpretation very much fits in with the image I took for “Losing it?”, taken just a couple of panels along from this one. MM🍀👍

Would make an excellent album cover. I like the contrast of nature and manmade. Definitely pulls you in –what’s in the other side?

The other side is a shed and then a bit of “waste land” that will hopefully improve once the new stadium is completed.

Like the colours.
‘It is as if nothing is sacred, man has to leave his disfiguring mark.’
I hear you. On a related theme, this is an aspect of air travel that always slightly depresses me, seeing how much of the earth man has gouged, stripped, ‘developed’.
Keep ’em coming, John 👍

Lots of depth and layers in this image John, but for me it’s the orange/ red with the yellow/ green colours that make it more than just another image and the tree seems to blend with the colours until you actually ‘see’ it.

Cheers Lee. I think layers is exactly it. Sometimes I am not sure what draws me in to an image, but I just sense something in it for me. Do you get like that? Hope all good with you, MM 🍀

Yes, exactly. I know when I think an image is good, meaning that I like it, but often the why escapes me for some time.
