Idea from my wife. Soar or sink, thanks Dee!

Wish I could have cloned out a couple of distracting elements, but not allowed. Oh well.

Picture reminds me of us vs. the world, which brings to mind what Jesus tells us:

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." (Matt. 11-28)

Thanks for looking.

great reflections and colors and a nice fitting title! My only complaint, if I must, is that I would like to see some details in the heel part of the boot. But it works just fine as it is. One of my favorites...

Ofcourse, I can feel the burden when seeing the picture. Excellent background color. I like how the shoe presses the flower just enough, so that it is still partly visible. Good work. First page image. :)

Are you stomping on DPC flower shots? Burdened with voting on flowers, flowers, and more flowers! Good photograph by the way. 7
