My Island

My son gave me this metal cut out of Vancouver Island for my birthday in June. His metal shop teacher made it! I couldn't fit the whole thing in the shot so the northern tip is cut off a bit!

Isn't that lovely - it looks rather like a map. Great placement - I like the pov and the visual tension created by the pebble pile in the background

what an excellent way to show off the art shop. If your son's metal shop teacher needs help with promoting his goods, he should certainly ask you.
