on opposite sides of the horizon

This week’s photo challenge, opposites, had me thinking. The level straight line of the horizon separates the sky from the water, and I noticed how everything above the horizon was parallel — the clouds, the colors, the sky are all blocked in parallel chunks that provide cover to the whole surface. Meanwhile, below the line things are perpendicular. And that had me thinking: the posts, the trees — they are reaching up to the heavens. To heaven.
