You know, there’s something really striking about the combination of black ground and green trees. It’s a really nifty color combination, and not just because there’s all sorts of lovely symbology about trees growing in an old lava field. The strong shadows from the sunset just add delicious icing to the lovely lava-cake.

…Yes, I did just type lava-cake. That’s what happens when you are tossing together geology and metaphors. Things get… sticky. And covered with icing, apparently.
