What I saw / What I made



Wandering around the docks, I spotted this netted container with a pile of beautiful blue rope and some rusty stuff. It was the color that caught my eye and I liked how the complementary orange/rust elements looked against all that blue.

I isolated the hook and used that as my focal point. At first I shot it nestled in among the ropes, but then reasoned that if the hook "hangs things," maybe I should give it some "hanging room" at the bottom. Which version is better? I'm not sure. What do you think? ©Carol Leigh
