2015-10-05 meet me at the edge

I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you can see all the kinds of things, you can’t see from the center.

Ball of mango wood
Interesting for me: the tree is more known for its fruit rather than for its lumber. However, mango trees can be converted to lumber once their fruit bearing lifespan has finished. The wood is susceptible to damage from fungi and insects, but it is also know to produce phenolic substances, that can cause contact dermatitis.
That sounds like a good ambition to me. Great image

Now it's time to pick a role. What do those in the background do? What do I as a viewer do? What are the aspirations of our main protagonist here?
There are some really interesting choices. Great job starting up my brain. :)

I had a breakfast with him once! Not that I remember much from it, as My English was not that good at the time :). Beautiful capture here, and the light in it is like a puzzle.

I like the feeling of suspense in this - that ball looks as if it may fall at any second.
Great lighting and use of negative space.
