This was posted in a recent thread. What a wonderful eye you have. Thank you. I feel the same way as chromeydome "This is the type of image I aspire to take, but never seem to achieve. Exceptionally well seen."

I'm happy that this got a lower vote than most of my entries. That's pretty selfish of me isn't it. But really, I'm just glad that the voters dislike this kind of image more than they dislike the kind of mediocre pap that I typically put to the mat.

However, I think the key to this image is not in the picture. It's in the challenge.

I think Yanko and klkitchens actually got the connection. I'm stunned that someone would understand the connection between 'still life' and yet consider this hyperliteral "Yellow. Still Life." image a DNMC.

OK, it's not beautiful, but it does make sense.

It's not the birds. It's the motion they show.

It's not the motion of the birds. It's the suggestion of motion, mirrored in the clouds.

It's not the suggestion of motion. It's the feeling of being there. Sand in the toes. Salt in the nose. Wind in the hair. The dialogue between the crashing waves and the trickling of sand.

It's not the feeling of being there. It's the hints of memories that are brought back of better times, healthier bodies, missed opportunities and bitter internal struggles fought alone on a backdrop of unforgiving, uncaring and untamed nature.

It's grey. And it's great.
