As I was walking down the river, I spotted a small mink posed on the rock. I'd never actually seen a mink in the wild, so I wasn't really prepared to take the photo and he dashed underneath the rock, only peeking out his head a little bit. I was able to get a number of photos of him like this, and this is the one I'm most satisfied with. He blends in naturally with his surroundings, and one might not even notice him if he isn't pointed out. I wish the left side weren't so washed out, but I suppose it provides a bit of contrast to the image.
The washed out light gives that portion of the photo a mystical feel. If you were to crop in on this shot, and have the dark mink on one side, and the celestial bright forestry on the other side, it would tell an interesting narrative...
ReplyDeleteI like the focus on the rocks here. I wonder what they'd look like if you went even closer.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the other comments. Even though you couldn't get closer, cropping in would create more of a narrative. I do like the "where's Waldo?" effect it has now though.
