COMMENTS
The title evidences Wayne's playful sense of humor, referring to the patches of red color that peak out from the silver surfaces. There is a sense of movement in the undulating silver surface of plates, with sparks of molten heat or lava bubbling, seeming to want to force itself out from below.
