PUYALLUP, WA - The State Fair had a building full of local arts and crafts on show. Much of the work is made by talented amateurs and students. Those fancy fair blue ribbons are awarded; so fancy that I should really get a picture next time.
The composition here was too busy. I was aiming for the look of a tree in winter - by using a tight frame and shallow focus depth. I think the overall effect is much more convincing in monochrome. Since the background has no competing color, my eye easily goes to the tree.

This circular pattern made me think Death Star. The subject here was also wires and texture, so I again used monochrome to eliminate competing light and color. Even a tiny bit of color in the wrong place steals focus from the texture.
