the word for Friday 27.11.09 is WATER

Today's word is WATER. Well l wouldn't have much problem deciding on the sort of image l would take to-day, as it rainned all day! I thought of puddles and raindrops running down a windowpane, I thought about water coming out of a tap or a bath full of water or maybe a kettle full of water. Then as l was walking down the street l saw what l was looking for. On the pavement next to a wall, was a thrown away coffee/tea cup and it had been collecting the rainfall. So my image is a cup full of natural water!

l also loved the fact that the disposable coffee cup which was collecting this "pure" water came from The Planet Organic coffee shop . I promise this was not staged.

Water is a compound of oxygen and hydrogen (chem. formula: H2 O) with highly distinctive physical and chemical properties: it is able to dissolve many other substances; its solid form (ice) is lessdense than the liquid form; its boiling point, viscosity, and surface tension are unusually high for its molecular weight, and it ispartially dissociated into hydrogen and hydroxyl ions.


ORIGIN Old English wæter (noun), wæterian (verb), of Germanic origin; related to Dutch water, German Wasser, from an Indo-European rootshared by Russian voda (compare with vodka ), also by Latin unda‘wave’ and Greek hudōr ‘water.’
