As I looked at this abstract image I started picturing a desolate desert with winds blowing, shrubbery and almost seeing people walking on the desert floor. As I continued to read the description I was surprised to see that it was not a painting at all, instead it was a macro photograph of agate rock.
This intrigued me as it showed how ingrained symbolism is in our minds. The lines in the rock appear like wind to us, we see the dusty sky and desert floor in the contrasting colours of the rock and even go as far as seeing silhouettes of people.
