With just a handful of Manzanita leaves, photographer Rob Herr captured the metaphorical essence of life on Earth, from birth to death and decay.
Found at The SciencePunk Blog. I claim no credit for the clever title. That belongs to Frank Swain of said blog (which you should visit, because he's got a lot of neat stuff)
The teacher comes to see what I'm doing.
"I've finished it already", I try to explain.
"Well, then you should search for more facts about philosophers and take notes- That's a very interesting picture. There's everything there, from birth to death... Wow. What's the site?"
"Uh... Neatorama..."
"Okay. Very interesting."
The teacher leaves.
Saved. Thank you, Neatorama!
