Well Endowed

Posted by Russ Devan (New Hanover, United States) on 9 July 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

This is the dock at the Eighth Lake Campground in the Adirondacks, where we spent a week camping. When my wife looked at this photo she said it looked like a penis. As a geologist and a photographer, I've learned to visualize many different things that either no longer exist or don't yet exist, but I never visualized THAT when I made this photo. And she tells me that my mind is in the gutter!

"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."
