Shadow and Sand Fence

Shadows are very underrated. As I was walking on a boardwalk in the Gulf of Mexico I saw these wonderful shadows created by a sand fence. I used a wide angle lens so I could include most of the fence along with this shadow in the frame. The composition does not include the sky because it would distract from the overall image. The gentle curve of the fence gives a nice vertical reference for the photograph. This image is more about tone than color thus making it a great subject for black and white. LynnFreeny.com
