Big Pine Creek Hike #3 - Cienega Mirth

Branches, Boulder (Big Pine Creek) - Sierra Nevada  2018
Cut Log (Big Pine Creek) - Sierra Nevada  2018

The trail turns a corner and runs parallel to Big Pine Creek for quite a while. This is a pleasant, shaded area (called "Cienega Mirth" on the topo map), very noisy with the sound of the creek nearby.

[UPDATE]: Below, a black and white version of the log, as suggested by Curtis in the comments.

The cut log shot is interesting.

I begins to move, as abstraction, into other metaphorical options, i.e., like aerial shots of cities
or agricultural land--you probably know Garnet's work, or Emmet Gowin's?

Might make a good b&w too.

. . . or, with some obscure enigmatic quotation, it could almost be a Minor White.

Black and white version added to the post.
