My friend Bet emailed this to me: It is an extraordinary shot, taken from a bird's eye view, of a herd of camels crossing the desert. Look very closely, though — those black figures are actually just the shadows of the camels! It's the white figures that are the real camels!!!

{with apologies to St. Matthew} "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle ..." than for the eye to see what is real and what is merely shadow. It's a non sequitur, but you know what I mean. ;-)
