When I shot this solitary tree I was reminded in its stark solitude of these words. Which are sadly as timely as ever they in our current times.
'First they came for the Socialists and I did not speak out because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the Trades Unionists and I did not speak out as I was not a Trades Unionist
Then they came for the Jews and I did not speak out as I was not a Jew
Then they came for me........ and there was no one left to speak for me.'

Re: First....
I love it, Sharon. I guess the reason why this is a good photo is - because it is. I will leave critique to to other people.
Cheers Ole
