Its stalk bends under dew
Little yellow flower" - Basho

Love the conflict of picture and quote – dramatic picture with the gentle quote.

I love the way you have interpreted the combo in this way. Thanks. Always enjoy getting comments from you Pat.

Love the quote Basho is unique…the image is great as Pat and Jacqui said…the little delicate flowers the lovely solid little house and the dark dark sky, an impending storm to crush those little plants but the family in the house should be cosy…I’d like to see inside that house…did you?

hmm I think he did see inside… swilling down the local brew, Frank would have also enjoyed it ..even a song I think

Isn’t the dark dark sky just the heavy afternoon shadow on the mountain side opposite and woodsmoke drifting across?

Your right susan but I didn’t want to point that out and change the drama of Pat, Marie’s, and jacqui’s comment, ha ha . Welcome back from the Rock.- – though it was a morning shadow i I remmeber correctly.

whether it was painted in dark, or a was a shadow or a stormy sky, it still makes the photo look more dramatic….quite often though you can have sunshine from a certain direction and a dark sky above

Wood smoke could kill those delicate little flowers…she said petulantly.
and I thought dew formed in the morning..but don’t change the quote not a Basho quote never change a Basho quote.
