I love the fact that on your photo there are these two opposites if you will. On the one corner, earth and all that is grounded. On the other corner water and magic which is represented by the twinkle of light on the surface. And then I start imagining a whole world down there filled with magical creatures. But that's just me and my vivid imagination.
