Yes, yes, yes!!!
What Aileni said! I love the texture of the wood.
a powerful image!
i love it! it tells its own story!
off topic: you could be right...its a Cinnabar moth.It has a yellow stripped body but a black and teloow wing.
thanks for dropping by. I knew its not a butterfly...lol!
some really really nice photos here :-)
Solid!
Old wood and rocks, great textures, always work well on mono.
It is true! ...sun sea and rocks is always work for me too:)
Your picture is beautiful.
The shadows and sun make great contrasts.
This was powerful and beautiful! Great mono :-)
That's fantastic. I love the way the rocks and wood are dominant with the sea almost looking like a small pond.
No words ever needed to describe this. It is a crisp mono.
This photo makes me long for the days when a stroll by the sea might make such a subject possible :-)
Great contrast in tones and textures.
Beautiful textures.
This is very beautiful!:-)
such an awesome shot...! thanks for visiting mine...
Terrific..mono of wood and this lovely scene!
That's a great picture!
For me, this is all about lines splicing up the space. Lovely and simple. The simpler the better. Love it.
Great composed mono shot!
Lovely close-up. I like it a lot.

What a wonderful shot!
Great texture. Nice shot.
the texture of the wood.. it is so rich
A really strong image! The rocks are so touchable.
Wonderful!!! You have captured this awesome light in this post. Thanks for sharing.
Ooh, very dramatic and all of the detail so clear!
Three Rivers Daily Photo
Very nice...accentuates the power of the sea!
This image shows your mastery of B&W and the keen eye of an artist.
An extraordinary combination of post and rocks by the sea. Very artful.
Old wood and old rocks- definitely a winner! Beautiful! :)
I love this one!
Super, Dragonstar! Great combination of textures and all the better with the sea included in the composition.
Beautiful composition of wood, stone and sea. Looks beautiful in black and white.
The wood is striking but the rock and the water and the air are forever. (Tks for you comments.)
Really like this picture. x
I have always wanted to live by the ocean...I love everything about it and you capture everything about it so well....Michelle
I don't know how I managed to miss this last week - but I've caught up with it now. It jumped out at me from Aileni's Showcase not only because it is a lovely photo but because it is so very much like the rocks and sea and posts of wood near where I live on the Dorset Coast.
Where is it of?
