Description
Four elements to the existence of life on our planet
The cold and wet water
The hot and dry sun
The air that surrounds us all
The earth that absorbers it all
The fifth element is the one that unbalance this equation.
The fifth element is us, the righteous humans
In the center of everything, playing god with this planet
Changing nature to fit our way of living
The sun is hotter and the water is rising
The air is polluted and the earth is dying
But we are god and we are right
We rather be blind then give up a fight
And this is why we go to wars
Coexisting seems to be the hardest thing
When we all are the most important
And everything else must change
The same way we put ourselves above others
We put ourselves above this planet, above life
The elements of life are what brought us all here
But the fifth element may take it all away. Us
****
A point to think about. Maybe to acknowledge our role in these elements. Maybe to simply learn how to enjoy this nature in a more passive way, rather than manipulate it.
I would like my children, and my children's children to be able to still take photos like that.

I don't think I conveyed that message correctly... I mean that I really like your photos :] a lot! And I'd like to use them as a booster/reference for things I'd make up in any art or game I might create as settings

Loved the photo, but especially the poem. We must really start thinking about ourselves as the fifth element that must bring balance instead of chaos and destruction.
For our children...

Elements is my ravename! 
"The sun is hotter and the water is rising
The air is polluted and the earth is dying
But we are god and we are right
We rather be blind then give up a fight "
that's my favourite verse

This might sound insane, but I hate looking at your work, because it's just TOO good.

i don't just want to say this is remarkable or stunning - though it is - but this evoked an emotion of awe and excitement, which i appreciate in any work of art
thank you for sharing
this is beautiful

This is one of those pictures of yours and I think the poem speaks out louder than the picture, and image just completes it. It's a beautiful shot, but the poem is much stronger... Sometimes I think you should submit them as poetry and put the picture as the preview for it.
By the way, watch out for grammar in your poems... I often find errors/typos

I agree. The poem definitely speaks out more than the picture. ^^

My English is not as good as I would like it to be. Did you notice something wrong in this one?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, but just a couple. These are the lines (corrections in bold):
"...
The fifth element is the one that unbalances this equation.
...
We rather be blind than give up a fight
..."
If you'd like, I can go over any of your poems.

I find with many of your shots, glancing at them will make you think "wow, that's neat." However, if you check out the expanded view, and just look at it for a little bit, you start to notice some things that take it from "neat" to "fantastic."
The way the sunset bleeds into the water, and how the little shore pond reflects the sky, just like glass. . .I love it.
