Perspective

The tragic or the humorous is a matter of perspective.

This photo is a reflection in a piece of art in a sculpture garden in Des Moines. I like how it pseudo-dalis everything. Meaning in makes everything ind of look like a Salvador Dali painting. I provide the additional definition here only because "pseudo-dalis" sounds like some kind of medication.

It reminds me of how your perspective can change when you look at it reflected in someone else's eye or through a different lens. Like if you look through a microscope at a mosquito leg, it looks much different than if you look at it with your naked eye. Why would you look at a mosquito leg through a microscope? Because that's one of the slides they gave you with your microscope, that's why.
