The "Bug Light" officially the Long Beach Bar Lighthouse, stands in Gardiner’s Bay between Greenport and Orient Point, New York.
Built in 1871 on a screw pile foundation that made it look like a giant water bug, it burned down in 1963 and was faithfully rebuilt by local residents in 1990.
I added some motion blur to create this minimalist image.
Brilliant presentation!
Upon opening the image the eye is immediately swept left to right via the motion blur - only to be immediately arrested by the sharp focus at center-frame. Quite dynamic.
