    I think it's a slingshot in Jacob Meister's backyard!

    Beautiful colors. I've discovered I love photos that look up at the sky.

    This looks quite real! Like the almost monochromatic rusty red.

    the movie 'Giant' popped into my head
    that's what I love about photography
    it makes you see and feel so much

    especially when it's good
    and you're good

    @ Cezar and Leia - I'm not a sailor, but a yardarm has to do with a piece of a sail, and so this device keeps part of a sail from going crazy in the wind. I think. Wikipedia has an article on yardarms which might make more sense.

    Hi Jacob,

    Great shot! Is this from a boat?

    Have a great Sunday!

    Best regards

    @ Asta - No, it's more like a decorative piece along the boardwalk at Lake Sumter...although it may have come from a boat...

    My comment disappeared again. I think I said something like "are we into modern art?" ;-)
