- Description:
- Under puffy clouds, against a featureless horizon, a man in a suit hauls the edge of an enormous sheet of grass forward onto the land.The man has his back to the camera and is tugging with both hands, his legs spread wide for better leverage. The grass is one huge sheet extending from the edge of the frame to the man at the center and all the way out to the horizon, it looks somewhat like water. In the distance, another man in a suit works at the same task.
