    Great pictures. Each representation imparts that sense of awe. There must be something built into our psyche to naturally have the response/connection to it we do and our desire to reach to higher realms from the lower. Earth is the place where we meet it or acknowledge it. I guess it's symbolic of the point in the heart, the kli.
