"The Glistening Colours of Ornamental Maple"

After a very beautiful day at work, I walked out, took a long breath as I slowly walked towards my vehicle. The soft early fall rains had just stopped and sun rays were finding their path through the few clouds remaining.

One beam came rushing in my mind as I approach this glistening tree...

A few years ago, Fanny Aishaa, an uprising artist from Montreal was ask to partner up with Billy Yovanovich Jr., a young local Haida artist on the rise as well. The result of the fusion brought forth to our school a magnificent panorama on the wall facing the main entrance of our school, one that everyone get to see as they walk out of the school. what a sight!

It depicts the sacred and now fragile life cycle of our most important food source, the wild pacific salmon. Unbeknownst to them at the time, the little ornamental maple tree found on the corner of the school entrance way was to take on the colours they have used throughout their elaborate and very colourful painting. The little droplets of waters were glaring, I simply had to take the shot.

So, for my first entry, here "The Glistening Colours of Ornamental Maple":

Upvote deserved! This is amazing. If I only had a house and wasn't vagabonding all over the world all the time I'll buy it off you to hang it in a rather prominent place.

...Being a wanderer, on the other hand, gives you the opportunity to go see it in person though! ;) Thank you so very much, I'm really glad you enjoy the picture so much. Namaste :)

Exquisite!

Thanks a bunch, the next two coming over the following days will be decent too and very different. I hope you enjoy them too. Namaste :)

Very beautiful and the colors are amazing. Thanks for sharing, and good luck in the challenge, though just being in it is a whole lot of fun.

For me, the fun of it is it and the sharing replies at least triples the fun! thanks for the kind words, I'm really glad you enjoyed. Namaste :)

Really dank photo @eric-boucher! Especially for the unusual background!

Sorry to read you didn't appreciate it... I didn't know the meaning of the word "dank" and just looked it up: "Disagreeably damp, musty, and typically cold." Though I read the words, I can't help feel that you actually liked it!?! How wrong am I?

Namaste :)

oh I'm sorry! I forgot you're not american. I've learned, that dank in youth language means great, awesome, incredible!

That's the feeling I had, thanks a bunch for the comment! It is very appreciated. Namaste :)

No problem, go ahead! I'm so glad you enjoy the colours and the whole thing. Thanks, namaste :)
