Part II of my series of outdoor "natural still life" images.

This time, I grabbed a seabranch that somebody picked up from the
shore and stood up like a tree in the sand (maybe they were trying to be comical?).
I thought that was very UNnatural looking so, I took the branch and
laid it down on the sand in a more natural / artful way moved it
around several positions till I thought it looked pleasing to the eye.
(to my eye anyway :-)

It might be amusing to note that I'd drawn a small crowd who were curiously
watching me move this branch in different directions, upsidedown, etc.
each of them having asked me what I was doing prior to watching me work.
