This photo is in tribute to all the pbase artists who have dared to bare their flesh on pbase. I would never have the guts to do it myself, so this is as far as it gets for me! :)

The orientation is a bit weird, so I confirm that this person does indeed have 4 fingers and one thumb! The little rectangle in the background is a kite belonging to one of the kite surfers.

When I read the challenge, the following poem by Yeats immediately came to my mind:

Aedh Wishes For The Clothes Of Heaven

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

Of night and light and the half light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;

I have spread my dreams under your feet;

Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

This is a photo of something typically middle eastern - my Persian rug!
