Pages and Leaves

Books are like trees. (Not really, but let's pretend for a minute.) On Christmasween night (yesterday) I took a photo of my crabapple tree.

This morning I took another photo from the same location.

The same tree, pictured at different times. What could be said of a single story, written through a different lens? Would the core message be the same? I doubt it. I believe the lens fundamentally informs the message.
