“A dry sheet, covered with ice, is an ideal combination for creating art photography. Having processed the color, I was pleasantly surprised by the result. The texture of the ice is similar to the bright paint spray that adorns the fallen leaf. Beauty is under our feet, the main thing is to notice it.”
SECOND PLACE (25% of this post’s SBD):

“ The sea has been wild these past months and because of this, rocks that were hiding under the sand have been exposed. Very rapidly bright green algae covered them. It almost looks like the rocks are green themselves.”
THIRD PLACE (15% of this post’s SBD):

“I couldn't believe how much this rock looked like wood, it has obviously been warped and put under so much pressure over the hundreds of thousands of years!”
