Shadows running around...

Another Ray Bradbury quote, as I'm re-reading Dandelion Wine...

"There are five billion trees in the world.  I looked it up.  Under every tree is a shadow, right?  So, then, what makes night?  I'll tell you:  Shadows running around in the air, muddying the waters you might say.  If only we could figure a way to keep those darn five billion shadows under those trees, we could stay up half the night, Doug, because there'd be no night!

The photo is a real oldie, summer of 2004.  Taken in Silver Lake Park, Highland, IL.  With some rather dramatic post processing effects....  Probably excessive, but IIRC, I was going for a surrealistic feel.
