  • Eyal Nahmias

    Beautiful perspective and composition. Even though the earth is cracked and dry, it shows hope and regeneration as seen by the green shoots and the dramatic sky. The bottle serves as a wonderful scale. some how the colors and the tonality of the image makes me think that rain is going to start pouring, filling the lake again. a well done image, and a favorite for me

    Andrea wow! what a statement!
    Two Years ago my son then 8 came home announced he knew where all the water was – In Bottles! and Car radiators and Air conditioners and Swimming pools – and you know he’s right! all these things that 25 years ago we only had minimal amounts of are now storing mega megalitres of our precious drinking water and you have in one shot shown that. the water will return when there is none left in the bottles too.
    Brilliant – cant wait to show my son! ~ adg
