I completely agree, David, but the reason I cropped it was to show the vague similarity to the cross with the little extra stick in one of the examples. If I pasted the whole folio, that would be hard to see.
I really have no idea what he's doing, fording streams is the only good analogy I can think of, so I was hoping to get some ideas out before relating it to the rest of the folio. Isolating an image can sometimes provoke ideas that one might NOT think of when looking at something in context. I think of it as a brainstorming session.
Relating it to the context is always my ultimate goal, but sometimes it helps to zig and zag a bit to FIND that goal. Having a thread dedicated to the image gives us the time and space to do that.
