 God (8) PlayPhotography
(181) | I got the general idea for this from another photo here on TL: http://www.treklens.com/gallery/Europe/Greece/photo147962.htm
I tried combining some of my nature shots together, but I couldn't make anything that looked good.. so I stopped being serious about it and threw together three different shots. The background layer is a picture I took at Ocean City, Maryland in July of 2006 during a sunrise over the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. The second layer, the one of the white sculpture, I took a year ago. It was a sculpture that I found in a graveyard. I don't know if it's supposed to represent a biblical figure, or if it's just supposed to be a sad looking woman. The sculpture seems to look deeply sad to me, and spiritual at the same time. The third layer is from a picture I took of a "strawberry man" I made for my three year old twin daughters for lunch a few months ago. I thought it looked pretty silly...
After looking at all the different layers, for some reason I thought about God. I've always had a hard time defining my own higher power... for some people, they understand God through religion, which I feel is represented in the statue. For others, their higher power is found in nature and living a spiritual life... which I think is represented by the sunrise photo. And as for the strawberry man, well.. some people just have a strange sense of humor and don't take spirituality or religion seriously. :) |
