Default lovers key tree

Because of all the hurricanes that came through Florida a few years ago, there are still a lot of upside down and over turned trees. I found one on the shore of a beach and it was MASSIVE. My boyfriend walked out to it and climbed on it so I just started shooting. I like how they came out. what about you?

thank you everyone! my favorite part was the contrasting blues and the silhouette of him and the tree. Lucky for me he's quite the explorer and my best shots are just action shots!
