A Big Rock, A Tree, and Two Little Houses on Poles (Graphic Novel filter)


The title makes it sound like this picture should have a really good story attached to it, so... here goes nothing.

Once upon a time there were two little houses, stuck up on poles. The houses were across from one another, windows on all four sides of the houses. The view from one side of the two houses faced a rock, a very large rock. It was not much to look at. Of the two houses, one had a very nice view of a green leafy tree, while the other could only see the same tree through the windows of its neighbor. There wasn't much room for conflict between these two houses; perhaps jealousy on the part of the house that was further from the tree. Yet, what could it do? Ask the rock to create a slide and knock down its neighbor? Such a maneuver might very well take out both houses! When it finally decided that it could take it no longer, the jealous house asked the photographer to turn the photo black and white, so that its neighbor could no longer see the green tree. Voila! And just when it thought it had evened the score, it came to a realization: The neighbor still had a better view of the black and white leafy tree.

Thanks for stopping by and looking at my picture! :)
