The colour balance in this shot is what making them so effective.

Hi Gavin, Can't help but see a dragon in yesterday's shot, and/or a march of the elders through a civilized--meaning cut to the ground--earth with the unruly and chaotic, still maturing masses being surrounded and brought into shape. Today's photo seems to confirm that interpretation as the elders stand orderly guarding their charges who are sweeping wave-like in resistance to the inevitable. And I agree that there is a smile--the smile of the mature conquering youthful dreams. Maybe I am just influenced by the goings on yesterday of China's 60-year celebration in Beijing's Tiananmen Square? Cheers and see you soon, Russell
