I have been culling through my 25,000 photos from our summer trip to the Canadian Maritimes and have managed to delete about 10,000 or so. As went through for the 3rd or 4th time I began to notice that I seem to take a lot of photos of rocks and water. I had a coupon for a free 20-page, 8"x8", hardback photo book from Shutterfly and since it would expire soon, I decided to create a photo book with some of the rock and water photos. I sorted through them until I was down to a workable number and the results are shown below for those of you wishing to view the book.
I do like the combination. Rocks are solid, heavy, and often immovable, forcing the water to detour around it. However, water in motion will keep pushing, even though the rock may not even notice. But, given enough time, the water will ultimately wear away the rock. I'm sure there must be a lesson somewhere in this natural phenomenon.
Shutterfly allows bloggers to embed photo books in their blogs, as Shutterfly would like very much to sell copies to the blogs' readers. Please, don't think that I am trying to sell anything. Even if you did purchase a copy, I would not receive any part of the purchase price.
