I think, therefore I am...

The conception of truth is the substance of truth absolute...

A world without absolutes is a world contrary to rational existence...

Deny truth, it will remain true...

Many paths lead to deception...

this could be interpreted in two ways....one less obvious than the other and obviously not meant because of the title...but they could be using the books as bait....just a thought, I love it!

Jinx-Fulion [2006-02-13 22:17:47 +0000 UTC]

Great idea and composition. I like how the rolled up trousers make them look younger, and how the beards kind of contrast that and make them look sort of.. savage, like they've been living rough, and instead of looking for your typical sustenance, they're hunting out some culture

I love how the tree branch frames it, making the scene look sort of.. indoors while being outdoors. It's like the photo created a room.

Add to that the crisp lines and the contrast being just on the nose, I have to say this is a DD that is well and truely deserved.

it's so refreshing to see something non-cliche and that actually keeps you thinking about it for a while.

The composition and setting are beautiful as well.

Great job!

Vermelho In reply to Maranatha [2005-10-21 18:15:53 +0000 UTC]

I think it depends on the picture. In the see saw in the field picture I think the color is better. But the picture with the stream... the color is overwhelming there, I think. The composition is great, though.
