16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Abandoned Boat in the Weeds

A Fisherman's Tale... This row boat was sitting in the weeds next to a lighthouse. Various vegetation was growing inside and it definitely had not been in the water for some time. Although the paint gloss was still visible I thought altering the image to a black and white rendering from its original color would be more fitting in telling its story. I also reduced the light and clarity, to add more dramatic imagery. The contrast seems to work in the presentation.
