Texture 06: Sowing The Seeds

SERIES:

 

I'm a member of the non-profit society, The Barbados Photographic Society. Part of our activities for members includes having field trips for members to go around the island exploring. Sometimes, our field trips veer off into strange territory....

 

After I ended my short documentary series on the "Fire at Mangrove Pond", my friend and I headed off to our second location. My photography club had an invite and a challenge from one of our members to shoot within his backyard compound. Such a small space but rather rewarding. I was trying to do two thing at once: Shooting still abstracts and shooting video to practice my technique.

 

Let's come closer again. I love the sound that the wind makes as it rattles the dry pods on this tree. It's soothing and I find that the pods like interesting subjects, in colour and in black and white.

 

Feel free to comment below with your ideas on what some of these things are. Good luck!

To all of you, hope you enjoy the weekend and have an awesome week ahead, wherever you are! Let me know what you think!
