Pod

My daughter planted a vegetable garden before she left for the summer.
Her efforts are beginning to pay off.

I took this picture early in the morning; the light was beautiful. Placing the pod on a rough railway tie, I began to shoot.

What I love about this image is the contrast between rough and smooth, colour and neutrals, lines and curves, new and old.

Sharpening up the image and bumping up the contrast in processing helped to accentuate these things. Adding a soft layer warmed the blues of the morning light just enough.

How this might look framed.
