That image was more satisfying &#8212; not just because it has a title, although of course that does satisfy my metadata anal retentivity &#8212; but also because I enjoyed the various patterns and blobs of color more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, this one did have some features I really enjoyed. The relatively wide and short panoramic shape was a nice mix. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I <em>did<\/em> really adore the trees &#8212; so elegant, and I could look at a painting made just of trees of that style &#8230; And the large plant next to it is a fun kind of contrast to the stylized pines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, this vase on the left &#8212; so fun. It&#8217;s a vase, with a flower &#8212; and it&#8217;s a carrot, with a carrot top! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pomegranate sadly let me down &#8212; this puzzle had a lot of loosely fitting pieces and I had quite a few mis-placed pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not surprisingly, I did all the various blobs of color first, then the little fine strings of color, and lastly was left with the solidly black and faintly striped navy pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Am I done with my retro kick? Hmm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><a
