Comment from Renate-Bertodi
There is a lady in Sheffield, by name Tamara, who is Canadian, she embezzled some many thousands and told the judge, she had never been right since a totem pole hit her head. I am looking at these totem poles and am wondering about her story! She has also stolen some 200 of my drawings and is selling them as her own, due to the said totem pole? All criminals come to England to avoid the law, we are surrounded her by Slovak, Syrian, Egyptian etc murderers, rapists etc I do not say this lightly, they have been convicted in their own country. Our gov wants a peaceful country, the way we get a ''peaceful'' country is by saying nothing!!

There are many rich Indians who have committed crime, looted the banks and have comfortably settled in Great (?) Britain. The British Govt has given them protection and say there is no extradition treaty with India! That's a long story.Thanks so very much for your time and the fine review! I really appreciate it!

so, Indians too!! I heard something like this, but would not believe it. A pirate's island again, will be pleased to be gone before the end of the year. I have it from above, because of the USA intervention for Brexit, UK /it is no longer Great anything except a leg up for a free life/ will have some 30 years of wealth and then will diminish. We finished paying off the American war debt some 10 years ago. However, the Europeans are also being silly, Merkel is trying to build a united front, like USA., a United European State and do you know, they bicker over their own ancient silly identity instead of thinking, unity brings power and safety, why did China pull all its lands together it used to own....?. People drive you wild in their stupidity!

A beautiful atmospheric moonlit picture of these Totem Poles stretching to the sky with a background of beautiful green trees under a star filled sky . Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

Comment from nikman
Yes, I can see and appreciate the atmospheric effect! Just wondering were the poles leaning inwards towards each other deliberately or accidentally? Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

Your welcome

Comment from supergold
obviously taken from a short distance with a wide angle lens;;
a great and ; certainly unusual entry to the "one pair" contest;
a beautiful wood work: good idea to change the sky; an even better idea would have been to have both totems vertical

The totems were fixed in that slanting position only! Hence I could't do much about it! I appreciate your nice review. Thank you so much for your support. Glad you liked it.

Comment from Sean T Phelan
Cool!
The people of the Far Northern tribes seem to have a special fondness for these things!
Your photo of this pair of them looming among the fir trees and set against a star filled northern sky is a lot of fun to see,my friend! : )
