Earth Overturned, Varying Gravity

Macrocosmic theory of relativity tells us: the objects gravities are not only vertical to a single horizon, they must extend opposite towards different directions of the outer space. And when and where these vanishing points end or come together is really a very complicated issue.

At first glance, we can only find two curved horizons in this picture “Earth Overturned, Varying Gravity”. If we look further into right part of it, a third horizon would emerge and goes up outside the frame. Of course, after more precise and continuous observation, we can also figure out another horizon implied in the lower part of this picture. It is clear that the trees on both sides of the road converge on the same horizon at the end, thus demonstrates each object on the ground must have its individual gravity direction.

Mountains rising straight up, trees in full flourish, vehicles traveling, a grange surrounded by grove with indistinct dog barking and people fishing on riversides, all of this rare and marvelous sceneries appear on different horizons, and finally are linked in order by well-rotated tea plantation.

The mountain shadows differ from each other; the reflections on the lake make the gravity directions more distinct; the distant snow-covered mountain range and murmuring streams represent a new season arrival and the cliff is absolutely a spectacular sight never to be forgotten.

Life in this enchanting picture looks full of spring vitality and it’s really and always what people like and expect!
