"The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."
~ Marcel Proust
What story or poem does this photo inspire? Ask a few questions. Make odd connections.
Stretch and reach for nuances. Search beyond ordinary.
Did the shoes' owner escape with the laces and soar into a tree sending leaves falling?
Listen for sounds. What do you hear?
If another creature steps into the shoes what will happen?
Delve into the mysteries of what lives beneath the grate.
What occurred right before the shoes arrived on the grate?
Imagine a changed world because of a shoeless hero.
Have fun and play with the image using new eyes as Proust suggests. Speculate for a story.
