the forgotten bride

I realize that I haven't been true to the name of my blog of late.  My sunshiny Arizona pictures are less than goth cliche (unless you interpreted the desert as an endless tragic prickly field of death, hehe).  So, forgive me, and let me make it up to you with a sad little watercolor I made.  What oh what could be more forlorn than a forgotten bride, left to wither and wrinkle in her ragged ancient wedding dress?

giants

There are lots of these in Eastern Washington.  I shot this out of a tinted window, which ended up acting as an interesting filter giving the photo greater denseness (in hue and shade) and intensity.  The composition slightly defies the rule of 3rds (which in all honesty is driving me crazy), but in order to maintain the dslr aspect ratio I'd rather not crop off the left 1/5th of it.  Clearly I'm trying not to let my ocd get the best of me :-P
