Photo titled, 'At the End of Day'. The photo is composed of calm ocean making up the bottom half of the image. There are no waves but undulation can be seen toward the bottom left of the photo. A long pier about halfway, vertically. The pier extends from the left side of the photo until almost all the way to the right side. The his a sloping hill in the background behind the pier. The hill is sloping upward from the left to the right. The the right side of the photo, the glare of the sun setting behind the hill is bright. There is a golden hue over everything. Looking more closely at the pier, the silhouette of persons fishing can be seen. At the End of Day


Photo titled, 'Misty Day'. Here is another ocean photo, although very different from the previous image. This photo is black and white. The photo is composed of land, sea, and sky. The land portion is dark, on the lower part of the image. The sea and sky portions are less dark with white clouds in the sky and comprise the top portion of the image. There is a ying-yang type contrast. The land portion is composed of thick brush at the bottom of the screen. The viewer is overlooking a barren mountain ridge extending vertically and sloping downward into the water. The sea fills the middle portion on the right side of the image. Above the land and sea, a thick layer of white cloud hovers over everything, with clearer sky above the cloud. A small rocky island is in the middle of the screen, extending just a little way from the mountain as it slopes into the ocean. Misty Day


Photo titled, 'Meet Me Here'. This photo is a park bench scene. The bench is in the centre of the image. The bench is wood. The back of the bench has vertical slats. The bench is reddish brown. There is a play of shadow and light on the bench, making it hard to say the exact colour. The bench is on a reddish gravelly surface, the type commonly seen in community parks to create pathways. The ground is covered in a mix of sun and cloud. Behind the bench is a forested wood. In the spaces between the leaves, bright blue sky can be seen. In the fore of the woods, just behind the bench, is a beautiful large, leaning tree. The tree leans from right to left, going upward out of frame. There is one thick branch that continues from the trunk almost in a straight line. Large branches break out from the trunk. It can be interpreted that the mix of sun and cloud over the bench is coming from the sunlight on the branches of this great tree, above bench, out of the frame of the photo. On the right side of the image, there is another bench, facing away from the viewer. Both benches are unoccupied. Meet Me Here
