We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
This is an amazing photograph. The lines in it are what make this picture.
This picture makes the world appear to be collapsing in on itself.
It looks like a cocaine farm just exploded into lines for a giant.
Yes, it's like a wave of trees crashing in on the beach...
What on earth is all that snow doing in the tropics??
Perhaps I'm just seeing what I want to see, but the large stand on the left appears to be Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens), which is a large, beautiful, temperate (as opposed to tropical) bamboo. Moso is the most commerically significant bamboo in China and is prized the world over for its aesthetic qualities. It rarely reaches this size in most climates, but is successfully grown in the Santa Cruz mountains (south of San Francisco, California) and at La Bambouseraie de Prafrance, among other places. It's thrilling to see a stand like this.

This is really beautiful! Brightly colored, blue sky, sunny... and snow. Looks like a good day for playing! I bet the air smelled wonderful.
