Almost every day there is a different sculpture at the beaches, whether made by human hands or not. This one seems to have perfect placement.
Absolutely better on black.
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
Now this, my dear Sir, is nothing short of spectacular: composition, PoV and (for a change!) a light and sensitive treatment all work together to make this a superb image.
@photographycrazy Thank you very much indeed :) @amandal Sometimes I can get it right ;) @vignouse Blimey, that's very generous of you - I had no intention of being both light and sensitive but it is Friday...
Excellent framing of this picturesque mountain, which I was admiring in the other shot. The textures in the weathered wood are very nicely captured and processed.
Oh the framing!! Super sculpture and I happen to think it's fabulous you get to see different ones every time you go... This image is just beautiful. Quite a mount you've got there.
@kerosene Thank you very much indeed - I do enjoy a good mount @micetro Thank you very much - and for the follow (I should warn you that it's not always this normal) @rosiekerr Thank you very much indeed, always appreciated @maggiemae No one would dare come near me...and thank you
OK - you win - must be time for me to head back to the 'Naki to try for some more shots like this! You will be interested to know that an image of the Len Lye centre got me top image at Camera Club the other night. It was one taken inside, of the shadows on the wall from the four fountain sculptures. Ha.d a couple of empty chairs against the wall to add a bit more interest. I didn't wear my cardigan, or sit in the front row either….
@dide Woohoo!!! Well done you - having spoken to several other members of camera clubs around the country, I now believe that ours is...unusual... @dibzgreasley Thank you very much :) @julzmaioro Thank you kindly, much appreciated
@mgphoto Thanks very much :) @radiogirl Thanks very much :) @hermann Thank you kindly :) @gazdi You sound like my wife...that's worrying ;) @888rachel Thank you very much - the set up was there for me so I shouldn't take too much credit! @joansmor Thank you very much :) @karlow75 Some one had the fore sight to build it in just the right place for me...
@yrhenwr I'd love to claim all the credit but one of the many local peasants had been here before me and built it. Knowing my luck I'm about to be sued for plagiarism @shepherdmanswife Thank you very much :)
Absolutely, perfectly framed mountain, and wonderful driftwood sculpture!! Big FAV! I would be carting some of that said driftwood home for some sculptures of my own! ;-))
@panthora There's a beach not far from here that is more driftwood than sand - that's where we go to get our supply. I'm fascinated by the shapes and forms
What?
You want all this praise and a Fav as well?
Oh, all right then!
