Love is the Keyword

"Love" is the keyword that penetrates permeates the “Noble Wilds”, and indeed the Master’s entire oeuvrethe entire “Nobel Wilds” and the MS’s art work. Different dimensions of love are described In in the photos and texts of “Noble Wilds”, different dimensions of love have been described.. The devotional love from the animal parents towards their children and the scenes where precious instances of different species of animals care caring for and communicating with each other and communicate with each other have been captured in the photos.

This touching love shared among the animal families and between different species gets is further  amplified by the author’s rare perspective.

1. Devotional Love of Parents

The One of the most impressive part,examples which shows of this touching love is seen in the photos of the fatherfather & mother mother swanswan. Father father Swanswan, “Sai”,  pulls out his own feathers to make a feather soft carpet  to covering the grass for his children. (Page 271)

Carpetess the ground
That your tender feet walk!
Know that you are
Loved!

With this text and the picture of Sai whose body has lost half of its feathers, readers can easily figure outappreciate the paternal devotion  and sympathize sigh in sympathetic unison with the both swan and author’s mind. The author nNot only is the love shown recorded the love and expressed, that’s been shown but also the harmony of word and image delivers the compassion that the author felt to for Sai directly into the reader’s heart.
 
This ‘motherly mind’ that follows the swan family’s every moment , showsis found in many parts of the "Noble Wilds". The picture in page 366 where the author is waiting for Pitu and her children’s first long flight practice is one of them. The darkness of night antithetic to the on lightning on the leaf makes readers feel how empathize with how the swan mother might may have felt when continuously gazing at the darkest night with a ‘motherly gaze’.

2. The wild life where living beings share with each other and live in peace and harmony

The photographss that are continuously shown throughoutbejewelling the pages of the “Noble Wilds” are the sceneriesalbum leafs of magical moments, where in which many different types of birds and living beings around lake Amoura live in harmony.

Nature never holds anything just in it for its own benefit. ; It it blossoms into the best possible form and while at the same time shows showing consideration to others.

A photo which showsdepicting a country siderural road in autumn was is listed along the poems. Without the poempoetry, it would have been difficult for the readers to understand the author’s true intent. This surprisingly ordinary- and everyday-seeming picture interacts with the poem to let the readers awaken themselves up with to the understanding of the universal law. (Page 47)

Autumn is already making its way through the village,
weaving a golden blanket to keep the earth warm for coming winter.

Foliage saying good-bye-
Flowers are donning their mature colors.
Something is going,
Something is coming.

Autumn in this photo doesn’t exist on its own. What that means is That is to say, that autumn exists on its ownin and of itself,  but also at the same time prepares and makes room for winter to come. Winter is not just a season but it has its the augmented meaning where it isof being  everything for, and to, all the livings lives going through the cold winterthat go together to the cold embrace under her wings. Everything in the nature fulfills its own existence and at the same time it shows that it cares for all the currently living things and the lives that will come to life be in the future.

A very touching and a good example of life with care is when the Royal Canadian Geese take carelook after of thisthe small bird “Or” that flew from Egypt. They keep this lost stranger among their herd flock and take care of it as if it is were their most precious think thing; like its parents would have done.
They always take care of their family, keep their own turf safe, share with others and care for each other. We can find the solution of how to find peace in this world by observing them.

3. Love is, : everything gets close- upe’d  in front of it

In the “Noble Wilds”, there is a photo of a wilted wild herb,  that have described by philosophical and fantastic phrases such as “The shade of time”, "The trace of time" or "The signature of autumn." Mist that does not even have the boundaries of its images which eludes the borders of the frame trying to encompass it is expressed as “The sovereignty of the fog”, which which is generous enough to bequeath a leaves a deep lingering imagery, deep in its translucent elan. These photos give the expression that how ordinary things paradoxically paradoxically can show the extraordinary perspective of the author.

Everything gets a loving ‘close-d up’ in front of in the author’s perspective field of vision and all the things arewhich is beheld is important. Nothing gets filtered or diminished by anthropocentric values or rational measuresempiricism. In the “Noble Wilds”, when the author gives a title to these ‘small and out of the way beings’, their intrinsic presence starts to emit light. They get are illuminated in full close-d up as the target of the author’s indiscriminate love.

4. The love of ‘the one’ One’ who covers all creation and everywhere around us

The respect towards the one One and the eternal love has beenis  continuously mentioned or hinted at throughout the “Noble Wilds.” (Page 370)

Precious life
Beautiful color
Who creates her design
So precise and bright!

Like dry grass, a snail in the garden is also the object of awe. The beauty of a small snail moves touches the author and that feeling connects to an outreaching admiration of the eternal one’s One’s work. The author gossamer text continuously beckons to tries to tell and stampacquaint the readers with ‘who’ taught the mother duck to raise its young with courage and love to raise them with everything she has, with ‘and the who’ empowered the father swan the love to keep the family safe and together when they are on the cold lake at night.

Like a Fugue’s variation, the gaze that’s been looking for ‘the one’One’, now realizes that the one is alike the feeble leaf in the garden. (Page 385)

One is grateful feeling love here
The tiny blossoms bring God's love near.
On the garden's slender grass blades
A magnificent message of grace...

The line in which the author tells the readers “O you omnipresent! Ney, the whole universe is you.” ("Silent Tears") where the author told the readers in the text havehas a thread silken connection with the finding that 'the one' equals 'the feeble leaf.' This finding gets is reconfirmed throughout the entire text of the “noble Noble wildsWilds” by the love that’s in all the places and all beings; and the pure origin of such love also described in the bookopus.

The overwhelming aesthetic and essential image panoramas of love Amoura makes the readers feel that they are also part of envelop the reader in this network of love; entranced and immersed, the experience is no longer and they can’t able to hide from love and can’t overlook nor miss the fact that love is the true nature of this world., indeed of all creation, as One.
