Well, this image is quite an opening gambit.

This image sure gets my imagination going.
Toil it is, but what is the context?
My eye roves all around this image searching for clues.
Possibilities are legion but the mystery persists.

So take a bow.

It's a mysterious image. I like it but cannot put it in a known environment. Looks like a junkyard or a messy home garden? Some details on the foreground shed are almost religious…

Welcome! That's an intriguing image, well-captured. You have set the bar pretty high for your efforts in the future.

Hi Synco, Welcome to LuLa. That's a great start --  a fine shot. I think you're going to enjoy LuLa. There's a wide variety of both subjects and competence here, unlike the situation on Documentary. Have fun.

I clicked on the image and it linked to a larger version.  I was, for example, able to be sure it wasn't cotton.
