Weathervane, West Dover, Vermont, 2010

A lopsided gilded weathervane distinguishes this gazebo at a Vermont inn. Rather than photograph the entire building, I shoot only the roof, cupola, and the tilted weathervane itself. The wings of the gilt eagle and the feathers on the arrow just below it still manage to catch the wind, aligning the arrow and the directional locators in spite of the tilt. That tilt gives the entire building its character, and the soft clouds hanging in the blue sky overhead embrace all of it.
