Description
As an old and faithful sentinel, the proud tower seems to watch over the ever-growing so-called civilization, crawling and swarming like a steel and concrete cancer treacherously riddling Mother Nature...Where are we going?
Why so many roads to nowhere?
What do we fear?
Why so many walls for nothing?
Itβs not so difficult to understand that we are really the only danger for ourselves...
Zhang Zhou, China, May 29...

Spectacular, I love how the temple stands high on the hill on the right hand side. Giving it a kind of mythological feel to it. And I love your methods of making all of your photographs stand out in color and come alive.
Another piece very well done.

Beautiful once again! While I find your photos impressive and so very beautiful I am floored by your wonderful technique of making the sky "open up" and feel almost dream-like. I love it!

I loved the last sentinel, with aid of powerful clouds, resisting the advance of the "progress" that brings the pollution, the concrete and the human being depersonalization.

I really like this a lot. Very nice view and colors.
I just think the sky looks like it had an extreme amount of photoshop work done to it but then again I don't know what the original looked like.
Great work.
