Fences in the dunes


Dune fencing is fascinating because it is constantly changing, especially in places where it is doing its job; trying to hold back the sea from eroding the sand. This set of fencing has already been replaced since I shot it in May of this year. As of now it is new and straight, in May of 2009 it will have another interesting twist created by winter storms which I will return to photograph. I saw this set of fencing one overcast afternoon and went back a week later when we had clear skies to provide the high contrast light I needed to bring out the texture in the sand and fencing. I waited until just before sunset so the low light would enhance the ripples in the sand.
