Mystery

Reeds and fence

There are times when I simply cannot help myself, when the muse strikes and I must make an image; this was one of those occasions. I had been helping a workshop group find images in an area of salt marshes near the small crofting community of Northton.

We had been there for around an hour when I noticed the way that this barbed wire fence ran through the reeds. I've been there many, many times before but never noticed this small corner of the reeds. I can't describe what I find so fascinating about the subject, the image is not translatable into words for me.
