Cactus garden with helicopters
 
Two weaponised entities meet in a dry sub-tropical landscape.  Life is harsh here but they are both armed and equipped for survival.  The red Mars-like background adds to the feeling of conflict and heat. Danger lies all around in the spikes and weapons.  A distant military helicopter with its own purposes flies over an unfriendly terrain.  Cacti and succulents rise from the foreground.  These environments co-exist but don’t touch.  They mirror the separate environments that exist in the world.
