Artist's Comments

This photo was taken in Sintra (PORTUGAL)
This is a well that was used for iniciatic rituals in the past.

"Reference must be made to the adventures of the Knights of the Temple or the ideals of the master Masons, to descend into the initiation well via an immense spiral shaped staircase. And down below, standing on a light pointed star it is as if we were immersed in the womb of Mother Earth. All we must do is traverse the darkness of the labyrinth grottos until we reach the light, reflected in the water of lakes of surprising beauty"

My brother took a photo of some caves beneath, here is the link --> [link]

Really beautiful angle, it gives you more than just the falling feeling but also the feeling of not escaping. The colors, the way they go from dark to light to the top and how they all seem to be mixed, not fitting well together. It's beautiful sense of trap. Though I wish we could see all of the bottom, you should have included that in as well, instead of cutting it in half.
