 was walking around the greenbelt this afternoon. there is this one spot where folks stop for water (for themselves and for their dogs... we are good that way!) and sometimes people will place things they've found on the trail, in case someone has lost them. usally there are shirts, maybe keys. this is what was there today.

Sad. Great composition though.

I've never heard of this type of 'lost and found'. It sounds like a cool idea. And now that I know it's Austin, I'm not surprised! Everyone I know that's knows Austin says it's a wonderful community.

Very cool! This gives some sort of meaning, I can't figure it, but I will come back to it! Excellent!

Great group of objects and composition. Good colors and clarity.

And wow, how could you NOT have photographed that? Fascinating. Great shot technically too -- the baseball especially seems to leap out of the monitor at me. Good job.

Excellent capture and what great composition. What an odd situation finding these two together.

This is a very sad image, although a very good one. Great composition and contrasting textures. Wonderful story.

What an enchanting story. I love the idea of having a 'lost and found area' on a walk. Even better (though obviously not for the butterfly) is the elements that make up this picture, the plaque and ball both have a aged presnce about them but the most beautiful thing is the butterfly which looks less decayed than the other two items but is obviously in a state far beyond them

Very visually appealling shot

Wonderful composition. I love the randomness of the items in the photo. Colors are go well together. Good eye!

Neat composition, the butterfly has really beautiful colors.

Nice photo, and I love the story behind it. How funny that the dead butterfly is there as if someone might have placed it. Great detail on the baseball.

Nice arrangement and DOF. I see it now, somebody carrying the butterfly over there, just in case somebody was looking for it.

It is interesting how everything is color coordinated in the shot except for the butterfly, really makes it stand out. Very interesting arrangement of stuff, I really like the composition!

sweet! I love the incongruity of the items - what does the plaque say? Wait, don't tell me, save it for day 10:)

I really like this, and I think it's really cool that people do that with the lost items, makes me like the world.

I was thinking the same thing as karmat, I was gonna say "that's crazy". It makes you wonder if someone found the butterfly & out it there, or if he just died there, very interesting shot!

It almost looks like the baseball knocked the butterfly out of the air.

Very nice shot! Great composition and subject, the baseball looks very old. Great find!
