Whitby Harbour Wall

 Vertical View of the wall entering the harbour

Never be so focused on what you are looking for that you overlook the thing you actually find.
~ Ann Patchett

I took the photo because I was interested in the vertical lines, the ice just above the water and the reflection. It was a lovely sunny day.

 Horizontal view, contrast increased

I was surprised to see how the brown became redder when the colour contrast was increased. Lots of rust!

Cropped, tilted and filter added

    Very nice photos. I would notice these things too, and probably take photos of them. That's what we do. :)

    I like how you played with this. You turned okay into great. And I was just perusing some photography quotes and happened upon the same one by Ann Patchett.

    Yes the vertical lines in the first shot are quite fascinating. I rather like the horizontal version better though. I tend to take most of my photos that way for some reason. Absolutely love your last version. Abstractand yet you can still tell what it is.

    Interesting to look at the same photo in different ways. You're reminding me I tend to get stuck in my regular routines.

    It is so cool the way the frost has coated the bottom of it, that is my favorite part!

    Once the lines become bold and the colour enriches, the result is an intriguing piece of abstract art. I like the original too.

    In the horizontal view, if you look at just the bottom of the picture, at first glace it looks like a bunch of snowy boots lined up all neat and tidy!
