The Haves, The Bottom
----------------------
Dear Friends of TE, once again with my pictures of landscapes, and very traditional.

And when we look at this picture, made me think about what it is and should not exist: the unequal social classes, which exist in itself, in any society.

Some top, others below.
-- Some with power, others with misery.
-- Some splendor with others in need.
-- Some comfort with other difficulties.
"But certainly, many without happiness".

The photograph is a representation of what we used to see in our daily life. The haves, observe the entire scene from a better position, with a green that is highlighted. The bottom, with leaves and branches faded, reflecting the decline of its existence, maybe on a path of difficulties.

hello John,
I like a lot how you use a beautiful landscape to illustrate a socially important note in a simple, but very effective way. and the photo itself is very good too - I like a lot the harmonious composition and how the point of view you have chosen places the trees on the very adge of the hill. excellent observation!

with best regards,
Kristine

Hi John,
The photo of this landscape is splendid. Very clear view and a lovely sunlight really enhancing the hills and trees. The natural colours are beautiful too, some nice reddish/brownish tones in the foreground trees too, to contrast nicely with the green background. Excellent work, thanks for sharing!
Regards,
Lars

hello john

very interesting way to tell the story of the society's social injustice. well, I will refrain diving deeper into that topic and verbalizing away about evolutionary theories, etc. i'll just say, I like your composition. 'layered' was the first thought that came to my mind when i saw the image even before i read the note. by the way, is it the same slope we see in many other of your photos? must be a special place for you.

warm regards,
kristaps

Hello John, since always the Rich are all in social top of the pyramid, I heard that the numbers of the billionaire to more than to double this year, I as find that the life gone into reverse and as the poor are of "poorer and that the gap between the Rich and the workers poor (even while working it does not gain any more enough and much can offer itself even any more vacancy neither of cinema neither of restaurant nor..........) was never also large, I hasten to look at last once the beautiful landscape of your photograph before the Rich does not build a palisade us to stop sincerely.............Bonjour John, depuis toujours les Nantis sont tout en haut de la pyramide social, j’ai entendu que le nombres des milliardaire à plus que doubler cette année, je trouve aussi que la vie fait marche arrière et que les pauvres sont de » plus en plus pauvres et que le fossé entre les Nantis et les travailleurs pauvres (même en travaillant il ne gagne plus assez et beaucoup ne peuvent même plus s’offrir de vacance ni de cinéma ni de restaurant ni……….) n’a jamais été aussi grand, je m’empresse de regarder une dernière fois le beau paysage de ta photo avant que les Nantis ne construise une palissade pour nous boucher la vue, bien amicalement

Hola John,
interesante y metafórica nota la que acompaña perfectamente a tu foto.
Me gusta cómo has distribuido los elementos en la composición, y tu encuadre con la línea sinuosa de las colinas en el 2º tercio del cuadro, dejando el otro tercio al cielo azul como telón de fondo.
El contraste entre los árboles y la hierba tan verde nos ofrece un buen grafismo y da mucha armonía a la imagen.
Bonito trabajo.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Hola John,
nos presentas una imagen muy bien vista y realizada del Valle del Cauca. El título de tu fotografía me ha recordado a un anuncio de hace algunos años, donde se comparaba a dos pueblos los de Villarriba y los de Villabajo ;-)
Nuevamente,los colores me parecen bellos y vivos, con un contraste de tonalidades excelente.

Un fuerte abrazo amigo,

Jordi
