blue sky with fluffy white clouds. The bottom of the painting depicts an ocean with waves forming on the surface. Starting from the left the white clouds of the horizon meet the blue water of the sea. Coming out of the water are tall white pillars that support a long bridge with a road. You are looking at the road head on. From this angle you can see the tops of two cars driving across the bridge. A long way off in the background you can see what looks to be a mountainous land mass and is the origin

The shadows are less distinct as the land flattens, the land also has more and greener as it gets flatter, one of the last canyon shot we see before the transition to the next chapter shows the sun rising over completely flat desert like land in the area. For this chapter the filmmakers used regression of contrast to create transition from one scene to the next. The flattening in land with the lowering in contrast also shows time and how what used to be vibrant

Light seems to refer to hope and relief whereas dark relates to feelings of pain and fear. The last example of longing is also the last song of the triple album, “The Clouds Prepare for Battle”. The lyrics represent longing from a different angle than in earlier examples. The
Since America was “discovered” in 1492 by Christopher Columbus, Native Americans have been booted off of their land by white settlers. Their cultures have not been respected and everything has been taken from them, starting when settlers came over to the New World. Even though this happened a long time ago, Native Americans are still oppressed today. “Midnight Raid” by Brady Udall is about a divorced Apache Indian named Jerry and his determination to deliver a pet goat to his son. Jerry goes to his
