This is a rather unexpected view of the Whitsundays famous Hill Inlet. A fallen tree, bleached and weather-beaten, lies lazily baking in the tropical sun. To me, this forked trunk is reminiscent of a holiday-maker who has lain there until burnt to a crisp! Yet I also like the possibilities of the tree in terms of the photos vertical composition. The lines lead the viewer in towards the mid-ground subject of the inlet, with its sparkling turquoise waters and pristine silica sands. To top it off, there are those fluffy clouds overhead, hanging beneath a deep blue sky. Its an example of how an unusual natural feature may provide a previously unimagined photo opportunity. New photographic viewpoints are everywhere, if we only keep our eyes open.
