Life – Wood Block By The Water

Posted by kairospix (Singapore, Singapore) on 9 October 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

When I look at this shot of a wood block by the water, I wonder where this block of wood might have come from.

It certainly must have been cut from some tree. What was this tree like? Tall? Huge? Leafy? Where was it grown? Up a mountain? In a forest? Near a river?

Everything has an origin and a history. And also an end like this block.

So what will be your history when you cross the finish line?
