The tip of the icebergh has become a methaphor for many things that are mostly out of sight. It stems from the reality that only about one tenth of an iceberg is visible above water, the nine tenths hidden below the surface. This idea came to mind as I remove rocks from the grassland. There are some stones that are lying above ground but they are the minority. Most of the rocks only show a little above ground with most it hidden below. When prying them out of the ground what surfaces is always a surprise.
The rock pictured below only showed a little above ground, like the tip of an iceberg. Some are so large that a long crow bar doesn't wiggle them. They are left for a later time. Look carefully at the rock pictured and the clean, shiny part is that which showed above ground.
What a life??? Rocks, the most interesting part of my day. 😉
Takk for alt,

The light colored area is all that showed above ground.
