Throwing Stones

When you find a peaceful stream in a quiet valley somewhere its pretty important to do a few basic things, such as cross to the other side (especially if its fairly fast flowing) and throw a few stones in (and make the flat ones skip). Here's Phillip and his grand-dad doing the stone throwing.

Green is the dominant color here (even the stream has a green tint) so the bright orange contrast of Phillip's top is particularly jarring. I guess that was kind of symbolic of how the noise and stone throwing broke the peace of the place. Or am I reading too much into this? Yes, I think so!
