Boots in the Yard

I had a few pairs of boots that I didn't throw out when they were past their time, and decided to turn them into a project. Filled with dirt and plants, I wanted to set them up as a mini life-cycle. To make certain I captured things the exact same throughout an 18 hour period, I buried the tri-pod. Here's the results from yesterday.






I started early in the morning, just after sunrise, and showed them as just beginning to sprout and covered in dew. Then, I added the flowers at the sun's highest to show full bloom. Once the sun was nearly set, I destroyed the flowers and tamped down the light to show the end of the road. Then, finally, I set fire to the whole set, symbolizing the end. 

My neighbors did not notice.
