    Πόσο αννόητο δείχνει το δίποδο ζώο, μπροστά στα δύο τετράποδα ζωάκια!!!
    Τέλεια αυτή η δουλειά σου Rabirious….

    Friend to the human, probably foe to the 4legged! 😉 Beautifully done!

    Well done.
    The animals seem to be best friends. About the men I’m not so sure.

    Friend or foe, that is the key question in our modern world. Impressive composition, Rabirius!

    Your powerful image immediately reminded me of this:

    The Wicked Messenger
    WRITTEN BY: BOB DYLAN

    There was a wicked messenger
    From Eli he did come
    With a mind that multiplied the smallest matter
    When questioned who had sent for him
    He answered with his thumb
    For his tongue it could not speak, but only flatter

    He stayed behind the assembly hall
    It was there he made his bed
    Oftentimes he could be seen returning
    Until one day he just appeared
    With a note in his hand which read
    “The soles of my feet, I swear they’re burning”

    Oh, the leaves began to fallin’
    And the seas began to part
    And the people that confronted him were many
    And he was told but these few words
    Which opened up his heart
    “If ye cannot bring good news, then don’t bring any”

      Thank you, Michael.
      I didn’t find this song on the few Dylan records I have. But I have a friend who has almost everything and will ask him to play this song for me, the next time I visit.

        Great! Let me know what you think.

        1. rabirius Avatar

          Yes, I will do that.

    I like the way your fences/walls lead us into the image Rabirius. Somehow here in the US this is a sad reminder of our political scene at the moment.

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Thank you, Tina.
      Yes, fences and walls will cut down free movement…

    friend or fou…

    toch maar voorzichtig zijn, je weet maar nooit Rabirius

    ik vraag me nu af hoe je dit voor mekaar kreeg..

    groeten

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Hartelijk bedankt.
      Nou ja, de meeste als het photoshop is. Ik heb de verschillende elementen uit verschillende foto’s geknipt, samengevoegd en vervolgens geprobeerd de elementen in kwaliteit gelijk te laten lijken. Aan het einde heb ik de toning toegepast.

    Hier leren de dieren ons een wijze les…
    Schitterend uitgedacht !

      Inderdaad.
      Hartelijk bedankt, Dirk.

    Goes back to the thought “Good fences make good neighbors.” Terrific, Rabirius.

      Thank you, John. I’m glad you like it.

    Love the composites you are doing … so creative!

    1. rabirius Avatar

      And I like doing then. There are more to come…
      Thanks, Denise.

    I love the tones and the sky and mountains you chose. In all the symmetry, my eye goes to the differences. How I always wish for peace! My view sliding up to the peaks, away from human foibles. Good work.

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Thank you.
      Yes, I always like to “hide” some differences in symmetry. Well spottend.

    Powerful image. Well done…if a cat and dog can get along, why can’t we?

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Thank you, Kirt.
      Yes, I offen wonder why getting along can be a problem.

    Difficult choice, though they feel at ease, in cage.

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Well, probably they do.

    I don’t think the animals built the walls, but they seem safer and happier as the men debate – eh?

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Well, it looks like they do. 🙂

  19. parkermccoy Avatar

    I love the symmetry here. And the dog seems very noble unlike the jerk shaking his fist. Haha.

    1. rabirius Avatar

      Thank you. I’m glad you like it.
