+
+I took this short video to send to a friend one day and accidentally
+made a 106 frame masterpiece. Well, that's hyperbolic, but there's a
+lot I enjoy about it.
+
+[#the-colours]
+The contrast between my orange painted nails and the surprisingly
+green grass is pretty pleasing. I think the gentle brown of the brick
+in the bottom-left corner helps keep from an overwhelming greenery.
+Thanks bricks :)
+
+[#the-composition]
+The accidental camera movement is nice, too. I like the angle the camera is at and the way it wobbles.
+It's clearly hand-held. At <span class="mark" data-time="1.3">1.3-ish-seconds</span>
+you can see I gently sway forward, but seem to be less wobbly. <i>I'm braced;
+I'm stable! I have-three-points-of-contact-with-the-ground!</i> Then, at roughly
+<span class="mark" data-time="1.9">2&nbsp;seconds</span> when the grass finally
+yields, I get rocked back and wobbles resume.
+
+[#the-sound]
+The sound! And the sound. The ripping of the grass. That planty matter finally giving way. The fibrous tearing.
+I just like it; I enjoy it! I greatly appreciate it.
