So the aim is to start with an image.The image should not be too static. Think of people milling about in a station or jet trails or waves breaking on a shore. The given image should then be compared to something completely different.

Clouds : Vaporised marble
Leafless tree branches against sky: Arthritic fingers

Dont forget to leave another image for the next poster. Images dont have to be poetic and can be absurd as you like aha.
I'll give the first stimulus
