Interesting Saad,
I have noticed myself that water and trees occur often as a path to meet His power. Did not know about fire but then we have central heating and open fire outside is forbidden by law ..... except for celebrating easter :-)

Guess it has to do with motherhood or so. Trees have been playing important roles since old times ( adam and eve ).
One day I felt my soul was blessed by a tree, another time I felt my brothers soul was nearby or in a tree.
One day God will reveal why I did feel it this way because its all from the hand of God.

dear Aziz,I appreciate your reply and the time it taken,it is the human search for perfection,a goal that is never achieved,that make me lasts that time, just to tell you,I have tried black and white,desaturated,gray scale,hue and saturation,and every way I know to convert this shot,and I posted it unconvinced it was in the right condition,this is due to I think due to the fact I have never discussed editing with anyone,it is only some small chit chat over the net,and I have taken my coarse of PS alone,i.e learn it my self in the English language with out a tutor,appreciate your reply deeply from the heart,
جعلكم الله من أهل اليلة المباركة

Dear Saad,
I will check the messages and will reply to your previous request, but I have already commented on this photo!
I didnot comment about the tree and the belief of these women, but the photo itself is very beautiful. Subject (social), composition, mode of the color and tonality is very good.
Changing mode of color normally needs 1-2 mins !
Why 20 mins? The quickest which is not the best in PS is " ctrl + Alt + U " ....
To improve , I suggest a little bit crop from right side to omit the last incomplete person. But this is not very important.
Health and Happiness
Aziz
BTW: About the tree and praying around it, I have seen this kind of belief in some villages in Iran as well !! They don't worship the tree, but for some stories that they have heared might believe that a holy innocent Imam or Prophet had been there and so and so , .... !!
...
Lailatol-ghadr e khairon men alf e shahr !

dear Aziz,I have asked you previously upon your opinion about one post,and now I ask you again about your opinion frankly and honestly about this post,that I spent more than twenty minute on converting to gray,and I am not satisfied with the result,just give few words about what you think,my best regards,
Saad.

Very nice. May be it a holy tree! Or may be it is the oldest tree in Turkey! :)
