"Ink" is another photograph that came out of the sessions with National Geographic Photographer Frans Lanting in Bishop CA.

I had a difficult time titling this photograph. I eventually arrived at "Ink" because it reminded me of a Rohrschach ink blot test. I've reached a place where simplicity is driving not only the subject of the image but the title as well.

This photograph like "Curves" is an abstract of a bristlecone pine tree. All of the vibrant gold colored yellows in this photograph are what jumped out to me on first seeing this image. After studying this image for a while I've come to find that it is darker black and brown lines, the "Ink", that makes the photograph work for me.

On the right hand side of the image is a lighter area, if you look at it closely you can see the shadow from a near by plant that falls into the image.

I've heard a number of comments about the shapes that the black lines form in this photograph, but as with all images it is presented for you to come to your own conclusions about.
