Hi Patrick, The problem with the wilding pines is that they actually do damage to the mountainsides, and they have to spend a quite a bit of money to remove those trees.
Where I live in Christchurch, we get a yellow dust that comes from the pine tree plantations just north of here - less than 2km as the birds fly. Leves a yellow dust to window sills, and when it rains the stuff floats on the water...
About 99% of pine trees here plantation stuff, waiting to be cut somewhere at about the 25 to 30 year period. Then replanted quickly. Very few trees get to a metre in diametre here - that is quite a few more years growing.
Cheers, Pb

look closely to see the moose and other images. The colors have been skewed to bring out the details.

There is no known "translation" that tells us what the artist intended to convey. However, some interpret it to represent a dream state and I like that idea.
