Nicely done. I really like your picture of the shoe. Where were you to get trees in the foreground? Do you have (I'm sure you do) pictures of the cheese box? I'd really like to see what you are able to do with that.

I always enjoy the petroglyphs. Is that one "modern" since it appears to be a church?

#3 is outstanding - capturing a foreboding, dark and ominous mood. The colors in the sky at the horizon line really set off the rest of the image, and add a great deal to the overall effect. The lower angle of approach works particularly well here too.

As you know, I am all about the emotional impact an image has on me, and this one in particular brought me back a few times for more. Nice work, good sir!

Petros, pictos, whatever. (Petros are pecked, incised, abraded, etc; pictos are painted; but that's okay, nobody's counting coup here.) Most of the time, I like to believe I can assign prehistoric imagery (in Utah specifically, the American Southwest pretty generally, and another geographic region or three here and there around the world with reasonable confidence) into one or another of the manifold 'styles' or 'time periods' or 'cultures' that produced it, but the fact is, nobody but the person who produced stuff like this has the slightest clue.

Modern? Like last week modern? or a century ago modern? Or a thousand years ago modern? Hard to say. All I know is that I first noticed it (these particular pictos) 25 (or whatever) years ago, so I'm reasonably sure the painted stuff is at least 25 + a day or two years old. And it appears to be a church? Oh? What exactly appears to be a church? Is it that there's what people (or more accurately, maybe a third of the world's population in present times [or maybe a prior millennia or two, and somewhere other altogether] figures represents a (Christian) cross? What was that that Freud said? "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." Maybe sometimes --to some-- a 'cross' is just a couple of lines that intersect 90 degrees opposite each other, or has some entirely other significance altogether.

Granted, this is admittedly a weird one. Regardless, I'd figure it had been painted around 1,200 AD. Plus or minus a day or two.
