Cosmic Photo Challenge: Art For Art’s Sake

Dale offers the prompt “art for art’s sake” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

It occurred to me that most art on display has an ulterior motive even as it pretends to be minding its own business.

These are all up-close photos of large palm branches that fell to the ground.

Palm branch with spots of light
Wavy palm branch
Another fallen palm branch
The still, small voice inside said, “Take the picture.” But it’s just another palm branch, I replied. Then I got the silent treatment. So, I took the picture. “Don’t forget to post it somewhere.”

  2. Nature’s art is amazing. My favorite is the third pic. The torn flap and tendrils of the leaf shows three dimensional aspect. The last pic is also interesting with light and somethings that may be the flower, fruit or seed.

    2. These palm branches can be found on most Miami-area streets until they are picked up by the street and park cleaners. Some of them are very unusual if one looks closely. Blessings!
