Someone had tucked an orange inflatable raft behind thek ornamental tropical palm growing in this front yard. The palm abstracts much of the raft, intensifying its vivid coloration. I found this pairing of raft and palm to be incongruous in color, form, relationship, and function. Both sit within a large planting box, bordered by a wooden frame. The bottom of this frame becomes the lower border of my photograph as well. Meanwhile, the right side of this frame creates a strong diagonal line, drawing the eye of the viewer directly towards the raft.
