I like th econtrast you brought out with the dark colors against the white background. The drooping horse (mule?) and the drooping men really tell the story in this image. Well done.
I agree with you Robert. It doesn't appear that they are there for any religious inspiration and that itt just so happened to be the shadiest spot protecting them from the pigeons who seem to have their own sunny bounderies set. Thought provoking image.
Thanks for studying 'refuge'. My sense at the time was that it was definitely more refuge from the heat than a religous refuge; but I couldn't resist the double entendre.
There's a lot of interesting elements in your photo, Dave. I like the contrasts and yet the blended tone of the entire image. Nice job and a neat, moody image. - Patty
