Well, for what it's worth, I understood it...I didn't come from a background of wealth and plenty either. Take solice in the fact that there a few people that do get it and 75 votes at or over 6 thats cool!!!

Thanks for the vote in the tree challenge, from the comments I have received I get the impression that a lot of people thought I had Photoshopped the image!!! No it's just the Oklahoma wind at work, as I am sure are familier with being from Kansas.

Trust me your not the only one with a weekness at conveying messages photographicly....lol.

I obviously have a great weakness at conveying a message in a photograph. But it is actually the peg that is broken. At the age of 13, I did not have a trusted adult who would take me to get it fixed or pay to get it fixed. I was just trying to figure out a way to do this, and I failed. But I feel like I've learned a lot, again. Hope this explains a little.

I get the broken strings, but not the dreams part. Why not buy new strings? Dreams are not supposed to depend on such a minute thing. I think.

A dream shouldn't be squashed that easily. Replace the string. :D

I think this would have worked better in B/W. The colors in the background and the various textures of the seams, etc. are distracting. In addition, you could bring out more of the horsehair using contrast in B/W.
