You and I photographed similar mini-landscapes here, with each of using the same essential subjects to convey different meanings once again. In my version (http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/80831380 ), I saw the grass as the sea and the boulders as islands in that sea. The grass washes against them in my image, the tips acting very much like exploding droplets of water. Your boulders are used as context for a study of the grass itself. Your grass is fine in detail, and stands out vividly against the dark background created by the boulders. My image is about the turbulent sea of grass, yours is about the beauty of its detail.
