Description
"Seahorse On The Siuslaw" by Thom Zehrfeld
This cool Seahorse serves as a carved wooden figurehead on the front of a rather large boat that is moored on the Siuslaw River in Florence on the Oregon Coast.
Carved decorations on boats are rather a thing of the past. And, this Seahorse art is rather unique. The origins of the figurehead and other forms of ship decoration goes back thousands of years.
It was common among seafaring civilizations of the old world. Egyptian figureheads, for example date back to around 3000 BC.
This image has been converted to High Dynamic Range (HDR) by combining three different exposures to give the image more detail and color, and then incorporating a unique painted effect.
