Description
Image Description:Initials is a series of small pieces from my earlier/earliest photography. I think it's important to look back at the different ways of working and seeing we had in the past, to keep on course with our present work. Besides which it keeps us humble, and reminds us of when we might not have had the benefits of nice equipment or the real knowledge of subtly.
A series of seven photos of one tree. About how a virtue can really be a sin, and the misunderstanding of commandments, etc. If they where not Initials they would bare titles along the formula of "Torn skin of chastity", "battered hide of meekness", "blistered palms of zeal", and so on in that fashion. I will let you guess which photo is which

I like this photo.
At first it didn't remind me of a tree at all, in the thumbnail I saw a burned earth with a river flowing in the middle.
In the fullview, yes, it does look like a tree, but it looks like other things as well. I still the river. And it looks like an old, once badly hurt but healed elephant. You can clearly see an eye and a scar, in the middle of all those wrinkles.
I think this is a powerful photo, it can take the mind and imagination so far away from it's origins.
