tongue ring

south side of the barn

This is a study in color contrasts:
when new, the wood had a warm reddish hue, the iron cold black.
Imagine it...
Now the opposite has resulted
I find casual subjects often the most intriguing, as my dumbing of the subject by selecting and arranging based on my own preconcieved notions is not allowed to inhibit the sense of discovery i get when I later review what my camera has captured.
Most challenging is to find such an image that remains interesting on web pages scaled from thumbnails up to huge!Composition seems to change dramtically with size.
