Where Iron Grows [Contest Finalists February 2016]
Uploaded: February 19, 2016 14:51:31 | Entered: February 19, 2016 14:51:31
Details from an incredibly ornate, downright lush wrought iron gate which once adorned a palace of Catherine the Great. Shot against the natural backdrop of summer foliage, I converted the greens to fall colors so the iron would stand out better from that background.

Thank you both, Peggy & Amanda; I would have loved an hour in front of this gate for more close-ups, but was on a walking tour... #11453533Errick L. Cameron March 29, 2016
