I'm obsessed with piers.
Many of my fellow photographers probably feel the same.
- Piers are often symmetrical and contain architectural details.
- They give a unique contrast of something man-made plunked in pure nature and it's quite compelling.
- Their construction serves as a runway for the eyes to slowly move their way to the beautiful horizon.
- Piers of all sizes provide a sense of being able to step into the picture.
- Moving water interacting with a stationary object can make for interesting imagery.
Maybe these favorites will help me explain our fasciation with piers.
