A very simple shot of tree roots weaving in and out of rocks by the seaside. Taken on an overcast day the lighting was perfect for this type of photo..

I developed the film using the developer Ilford ID-11, three parts water and one part stock solution to get less contrast and many more rich tones. I printed this in the wet darkroom and it was a beautiful straight print, no dodging or burning.
I took this photo on August 9th on the annaversary of the bomb being dropped in Nagasaki..... as the sirens sounded at 11:02 AM I just had this very humble, sad and lonely feeling inside.... I stopped to think if these tree roots were small at the time and they must have some history behind them.
