Mottled corrugated iron and some bare tree trunks hardly sound like an inspiring image, but no matter how I looked at it I knew I wanted to return with the camera.
The sheets of corrugated iron, the back wall of a crumbling outbuilding near Parc Ui Caoimh, were no longer a slate blue colour, but nature had started to take over, spreading moss, lichen and other forms to provide a dappled surface. It was as if the wall was acting as a stage backdrop to the trees in the foreground, the woods extending beyond.
The light wasn’t as good as on that first day, but still the scene was begging to be canned.
So what do you think?
Am I finally losing it?

I sometimes spend hours looking and photographing sticks in the forest… I love it when nature takes control.

Experience has told me over and over that my first photo is almost always the best while I spend more time finding the perfect photoshot… and yet I do it over and over again…

No way! This is absolutely fabulous – the colours, the textures. Scrummy! Would make a brilliant abstrat painting, or collage.

Thank you Anne, to my mind it is a bit if an abstract painting as it is. Glad you can reassure my wandering and naturally curious mind. 😘

It’s quite interesting. The combination of textures and colour remind me of reflections on water.

Ed, I can see exactly where you are coming from and perhaps the “ripple” of the corrugated iron helps in this regard. MM🍀
