There is a lot of subtlety to this shot. The contrast between the wood and the sand, the fine waves in the sand at the top opposed by the footprints in the bottom, even the more defined footprints running alongside the fence. The shadow of the fence, the tufts of grass. The whole picture is just so good.
I find peace and solace in your picture. The footprints on both sides of the fence illustrate that the fence is merely a metaphor of a barrier and one that can be overcomed.
We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
