Still a good shot! I was looking at his photos too in hopes of entering it in the competition. I took several pictures of my feet, but was not successful. It wasn't as easy as it looked ;D
that's fair enough Katy, his work became more about abstract expressionism so perhaps googling a painter like franz Kline would help you understand where he was coming from. I think if you cropped it a bit more to focus on the play of light and shade and the peeling paint you would be onto it,
@kali66 Thanks, Kali for the advice. I really liked the light and shadow but for some strange reason I also liked the vine in the upper left corner too. Since someone has FAVed this I am going to leave it as is for today but may re-edit it for another shot at the contest. Thanks again.
800! Wow! That's alot! I like this pic...I like all the straits lines and right angles, and then that dangly twig chiming down. I also like how the shadow line comes down through the bottom right corner and points out the soft shrubby plant.
