Here's another image from Landguard Point, this time looking across to Harwich. I noticed that the huge logs embedded between the concrete sections of the quay at this point had weathered in this fascinating gnarled way. To try and capture the feel of it, I put the camera on the end of the log, and set the aperture as small as possible. This, combined with using maximum wide angle, gave me almost infinite depth of focus. A square crop seemed to frame the scene best, and the image was finished off with the Topaz Detail plug-in for Lightroom to bring out the wood grain as clearly as possible.
HINT: If you click on any of the pictures in my blog, your browser should bring up the full size image, which you can then zoom into to see all the detail. It's really worth doing that for this one!
