ALAK08D-38
July 23, 2008
There are those pictures you come back to when you've had time away, revisiting the collection that gets shuffled away on the hard drive, and a certain picture strikes you like it didn't before. That is how I feel about this image. I took it, loving the matted pattern of the moss on these rocks in Dutch Harbor, Alaska. But looking at it at first glance it was flat and boring. Upon reflection, coming back to it this week as I perused the Alaska images, while it was still flat, I loved the soft green tones that ran throughout the frame, from the light grassy notes to the dark forest or moss greens. It was peaceful, a still life from the sea, the conglomeration of rocks and their hairy coverings. So I decided to send it up here for everyone to see. Enjoy.
