I photographed these barrels on the side garden of one of the village gift shops. Nothing special, but I like the combination of weathered oak, rusty metal bands, foliage and moss on brick pavers. To me, the long afternoon shadows add nicely to the image. This picture could have been taken 200 years ago rather than in 2008. That is if they had Sony dSLRs back then...
Notice the diamond shaped metal piece in the upper left. I am not sure if it is decorative or structural, but I think it adds something to the photograph as well.
Shooting with the Sony A300 or A350? Why not pre-order the book.
