Tidal pool

Posted by
Harry (Apex, NC, United States) on 4 October 2024 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

A large rock along the shore with the cliffs behind. I shot this with black and white in mind. In addition to the tones and textures of the boulder and surrounding rocks, I liked the subtle reflection of the clouds in the smooth water. This was converted from color, not shot with my infrared camera.

Welcome to all. I began blogging Retained-Images in 2004 at My-Expressions.com. It is gone now.

Rocks are often more spectacularly rendered in monochrome. I really like the reflection of this large rock in the foreground.

This is not a dinosaur skull. I thought for a few minutes about whether it resembled anything else, but no interesting ideas came to mind.

@Hiro: I agree - this is a hard one to force an interpretation onto.

The composition is flawless, and the black and white contrast is sublime.
It's a photograph with excellent technical rigor. Harry clearly has a great eye for detail.

The textures and shapes of the rocks are nice. The pool of water does make a difference by providing a dark reflection of the rock.
