a bit of everything ~ htt

Basically a reflection looking down over a bridge. Specifically - looking over the wooden rail of the metal ramp leading from the boat dock to the woods at Prevost Harbor. The round object is the top of the ramp support pole (pole is about 12 in/30cm in diameter), which had been covered with some sort of rubberized coating, now cracked and showing the post underneath, which has some sort of lichen or fungus growing on it. And, you can see a small part of my shoe and shoelaces, bottom left. Note: While some places have fixed docks, the docks and ramps in the Pacific Northwest float up and down on pilings in order to accommodate relatively large differences between high and low tides. When I took this shot, it was high tide, so the ramp had floated up to its highest position, giving me the opportunity to look down and see the top of the pole. At low tide, the top of the pole would have been above me, and I would have seen the side of the pole and missed the weathered top.
