A Tuesday Teaser – vol. 1

Intriguing objects capture our attention as viewed through the lens. What is your interpretation of the driftwood’s intent?

Have you ever found yourself taking a photo of an object, simply because its shape, color or some other aspect of it intrigued you? I certainly have and every now and then I look at these photos again and still see something interesting in them. Let’s see how many of these I can collect for Tuesday Teasers…

Meigs’ Dragon

While exploring the lovely area of Meigs Point in southern Connecticut, I came across a piece of driftwood with a shape that caught my eye. What stood out is that it worked its way up toward the sky, which provided a backdrop for this almost living form… With a bit of playing around, I created this composition where there is a reach towards the heavens, as the creature attempts to rise above the dunes.

Who knows what this driftwood is really trying to achieve? What do you think?
