Picture Discussion


This picture depicts a scene of a farmlife. This picture is most slightly taken in the rural side of a country where people are able to sherperd cattles due to the suitable environment , where grass and running water is essential for the cattles to graze and drink on. On the upper hand of the picture, there is a row of independent houses, which looks really tiny, which points that the area the cows are in , is far from the city side of the country.
From this picture, the ground which the cattles and little toddler is stepping on, which is obviously soft soil, goes to show that this place is far from civilisation. , which shows that this area is still under- developed.I assume that the people that lives in this area are probably farmers and people who does not like the buzzing city life. The cows in the picture may be cows from diary farms, which essentially needs the cow for its milk for production of cheese and fresh milk.
By glancing at the picture, we can also depict that the cows are well-tamed as the little boy goes on to stick out his hand as an invitation to associate with the cow which glanced at the boy with soft eyes. I think the boy and the cow might have grown up together, thus the mutual recognition of each other. As for the boy, i think he has grown up in that area, as he does not exude any indication of fear towards cattles bigger than his size. If the otherwise, most kids at his age will definitely cry, thinking that the cow will injure him/her.
In conclusion, I can see that living on this area seems nature friendly as the running water is only supported by stones or granites, which does not much to change the surrounding. I hope that the world will not change to become anything more than what we see in the picture, if not, mother nature would thoroughly be destroyed and be replaced by big buildings and tall towers , like the one in paris.
