I’m still working through last Saturday’s LBJ Ranch pictures and just produced this one. It’s rather similar to Smokey Smithy which I posted a couple of days ago with the obvious difference being that it has a figure right at the centre of interest. To my mind, this really makes the picture.

As in the last picture, I’ve processed this as a high contrast, almost monochrome image to accentuate the light and woodgrain textures. It’s not as dark as the previous one, though, giving it more of a “pencil drawing” feel.
