Enigma #3

Vancouver, BC

So named as I keep photographing this same thing in different ways and exposures to somehow get the feeling I have at this place. It is a giant piece of driftwood jammed up on a little spit of muddy land in the wetlands, and captured there - probably forever, on some rotted pilings. The barnacles are just starting to grow on it now.

Very complex, though very clear composition that draws the eye in and holds for a long time. V

Stunning B&W. The positioning of the mountains on top of the driftwood is brilliant. ~V~
