Please fullview, the preview is horrible



Combien de temps verrais-je encore
Fondre le ciel en fins lambeaux?
Combien de sang choira-t-il
Sur ces vert végétaux
Avant que ne s'endorme
Ma brumeuse conscience?
Combien d'année s'écouleront
De l'instant présent
Au dernier à venir,
A mon enterrement?
Combien de pluies dessècheront
Mes couloirs désolant,
Mes boyaux de cire,
Mon coeur attristant?

Ravalant mon désespoir,
Je vais fleurir vos tombes,
Attendant de voir
A moi venir la fin.

This photo express a lot of thing to me. First, I wanted to call it "Boreal Vault" but my English is too bad to know if it's correct or not. And I found the actual title, i don't know the one i prefer... I found "Desolation" too, but I guard it for a futur deviation ;)
And when I'll be dead, I wish to be in a tomb like this one, far from every human presence, and lost in the nature.


- EDIT : No! No! No! I wasn't happy and satisfied by what I did, and I couldn't get it out of my mind.

So I have changed few things...
The green wasn't exceptionnal and it made me, hum, almost ill. I decided to change it in red, red for the blood, but red for the wine too (and the vine), for the atmosphere..
The mood of the deviation is better like that.
And I have changed the shadows too, and the quality of the sky (by the way: PNG files are not the best files for the quality, so the sky doesn't appears as it has to :confused: )

Do you like it?

To put it bluntly, I just couldn't make up my mind, because I made 4 or 5 different versions. This one was the darkest one, and the one I prefer at last.



Suggestions, advices and comments are welcome, thank you

Stunning.

The rich green colour, so intense.. and yet it also seems a little dark, adding to the melancholy mood of the lone stone arch with the vine creeping allover it. Fantastic photo by your Dad, and fantastic post-work by you :)

Thank you, :floating:

Dans la candeur de l'aube naissante, tu t'avances,
Longeant la forêt de l'oubli;
Sous tes pas timides mais nerveux l'herbe danse,
Au gré sévère d'un vent maudit.

In photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary.

Very nice pic!! It's soooo perfect for your comment!! I like the green tones!!
The hill is going up from the left to the right, and the tomb is also leaning to the right. I think this poits at the future in a way; since in a lot of countries we read from the left to the right, so the left can be the past and the right can be the future. The green colors put a lot of emphasis on the plants in this pic because they're the only object that is truly green in real life. nature seems to overcome everything here; the plants are slowly crawling the grave and it kind of looks like they are knocking the tomb down. There's nothing to stop those plants; they will not stop until the consume and assimilate everything in their path; and it seems like they managed to knock the cross at the top of the tomb down. Also, there's a tree toward the left that looks as if it's dead, so it adds up to the left being the past in this pic. Also the watermark that you added is floating there like a ghost or a similar apparition.
Well done!!

Thank you!
Your interpretation is very right (I use google to traduce it :idea: because I didn't understand everything :confused: ). So, thank you :glomp:

Sorry!! What language do you speak?
:iconsecular:
I'm French... So I speak French. But I try to speak English as well I could. I WANT to speak English perfectly someday...
