Sometimes out in the Everglades, a ray of light will come from between the clouds and highlight a scene or a piece of a scene.  It shines on something that has been there all along but blended in and went unnoticed until that ray of light highlighted it's existence.   

This little palm blended in with all the others.  It wasn't until a ray of light highlighted it's personality that it stood out from the rest.  Then it was transformed into a unique and glorious palm and just had to be painted. 

According to Andy Warhol, we're all due a little time in the limelight, and will get in our 15 minutes of fame in due time.   Guess this is true in the Everglades, too!
