Subjects of Wonder

Portfolio 2: Some subjects have such an intrinsic quality to them and provoke such a strong interest for me that I am almost compelled to attempt an image. At such times I think the skill of the photographer is in finding a way of letting the subject do the talking.

'Mossy Tree Stump'

I found this fabulous moss covered tree stump in an area of Glen Etive that can only be described as a 'mossery'.

Richard Childs thinks that the stump looks like an Ewok - whether it belongs in Star Wars or Dr Who like I love the wonderful quality of the mosses, the magnificient colours and and the sense of movement generated by the branch.
