On my trip down to Galveston last Saturday with the Bay Area Photo Club, we went back to the seawall and to this site where a souvenir shop built out from the seawall over the Gulf of Mexico was destroyed by Hurricane Ike. You can see it in the background of this photo. The subject in the foreground is the remnant of a piling from a different building that was also destroyed.

Barry,
Mike and I both LOVE the perspective and selective focus of your Murdoch's shot ---- very interesting! Did you have to get on the water for that angle?

Hi Cindi!
Thanks for the comment!
No. The tide was pretty far out that morning so at most I had to straddle a miniture tide pool around the post.
My inspiration from this shot comes from Andreas Manessinger who posts a lot of these type of selective focus shots on his blog at http://blog.andreas-manessinger.info/.
Thanks again Cindi and Mike!
Cheers!
Barry
