black and white nature photography by andrew b. clarkLeather Leaf – Black and White

Scotch soaked his old soul.
Rattling a sole ice cube,
He hailed the barkeep.

The depth and textures in this leaf keep drawing me in. Compositionally, I do love the shot. I could see this boldly framed and hanging behind a mahogany and brass – adorned bar somewhere in the Hamptons.

It’s a beautiful, warm shot to ring in a very cold #floralFriday.
