Dilapidated

We came across this old shepherds caravan when out on a family walk. An artist was painting a picture of it and I apologised before jumping in and snapping a shot with my Leica. I like the way the foreground stalks repeat the spokes of the wheel and the way that the trees growing around the corrugated iron almost blend into an organic whole with the wagon. I chose to crop the image in quite tightly and printed it as a lith on Foma Chamois to exaggerate the grain in the HP5+.
