the kiss?

A vertical photograph of two large, pale-barked ghost gum trees whose trunks grow closely together against a dark rock face. The way the trees intertwine, almost "clasping" one another, directly alludes to the post's title, "the kiss?", and to a famous work of art. The unique form of the trees, a significant feature of the Central Australian landscape, is highlighted against the deep shadows and sun-drenched foliage.
