"At the temple, there is a poem called "Loss" carved into the stone. It has three words, but the poet has scratched them out. You cannot read Loss, only feel it."
I think this one is my favorite of the elements so far as well. The colors are fantastic, and this fractal feels like a work of art, as well as a watercolor painting.
I especially like the greens and coppery browns here.
It's scary how many of those things I identify with. I've always known Earth was my element, but you brought up a few things I've never heard associated with earth.
(Seriously, I'm a Taurus/Tiger, I love the sound of drums, the feel and look of animal fur, coins\ (wish I had more in my collection of foriegn coins...), I wear a pentacle, milk is my second favorite drink after rootbeer, I design and make jewelry, and I collect and carve bones, wood, and stone. I also have as many herbs as I can possibly keep alive in pots on my porch.)

Years are like fractals. The more you've seen of them, the more you appreciate the details of each one, rather than how many you've seen.
