Simple, but elegant. Just like rice itself, really.

Facing the sun and dreaming of (yearning for) ... another place, maybe? Lovely pale lemon tones, and of course gorgeous light.

arboreal flotsam

Comment:
Very absorbing, provocative photograph. It asks questions of the viewer; about context, even about the medium we are seeing (i.e. Is it under water? In a puddle? In a deep drift at the base of the tree?) Then other thoughts follow (What does it smell like? Is it soft, or crunchy?) I like questions, and the less information that's easily grasped, the more questions your image asks. Too good for a score but I'm giving it one anyway. 9.

End of the world & there's one guy taking a picture of it! Who's gonna look at it?

I just last night read a Stephen King short story called Graduation Afternoon, in which a nuke explodes over Manhattan & a group of people watch it happen and make comments, like they are merely observers (rather than the participants they were to become, just seconds later).

This somehow reminded me of that.

I'm watching this. Ichabod Crane will arrive a little later, I am nearly sure of it.

See? Lensbaby Composer with the Time Travel attachment. What'll they think of next?

You're awfully good, Amy J Hopp.

Departure

Comment:
Yes. Yes indeed. Nice LB use, too. Of course, it would be not so good without that trash, which a lesser observer would have thoughtlessly cloned out, not appreciating that the presence of the trash balances the bird. Liberates the bird, in fact.

Hell. These are the stairs down to Hell. I knew they'd be crystal. And it doesn't look too hot down there, either. Looks pretty inviting, actually. OK, I'm convinced ... pass me those Bad to the Bone pills.

The Forlorn Hope

Wow! Four wide receivers and two running backs; could be anything. Sweep left, probably. The QB needs to put his helmet on and get rid of that spiky kids' haircut before John Madden sees it.
