Beach Drift Wood

A group of images were shown on my screen; my eye immediately went to yours. The color and strong composition made it stand out. Upon opening the larger version of the photograph, I saw more subtlety that made the image visually interesting to me, e.g. the color reflected in the wet sand and water at the transition of the shore from land to water. Also, I like the big dark form of the leaved tree in upper right. It struck me that the photograph is made stronger by including this visual element as you did. Bravo! I want a print.
