Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Just off the southern Georgia coast you will find the scenic beauty of the Golden Isles. Jekyll Island is only 7 miles long and 1.5 miles wide, but has an abundance of wide, flat sandy beaches. There are also many centuries old Southern Live Oak Trees, like these covered in hanging Spanish Moss. Not long ago the dense and strong wood from these trees were used to make curved beams in the hulls of ships. The moss was used as insulation, mulch, packing material and stuffing for matresses. One sunny and warm spring day, this big old tree was just quietly doing its job so I really had it ... Made In The Shade.
I created this black and white image from my original color photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green square magnifier as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
