The Michael Lam Collection's Blog

I was passing along the seawall when I saw this piece of driftwood sticking up over the wall, and for some reason all I could see was some sort of animal, a giraffe, or a donkey with it’s neck stretched upwards, or a dragon.  I know that anthropomorphism is the attribution of human-like features to other animals or objects, but what is attributing other animal-like qualities to other objects?  I haven’t a clue!

Here’s the driftwood!

    Thanks ERB,
    I know that this is just the kind of simplicity and duplicity that catches some people’s eye and imagination

  See? You are getting better habits. Always stop, always get the picture, so you don’t have to regret not trying.
