The Maple Tap

Late february, early march when the sap is running. The tin pail hanging from the tap, now quaint compared with the modern tube system, here offers a nice contrast between a modeled machine form and the natural gnarly quality of the maple trunk. The remnant of snow sits beautifully on the rise at the gate just before plunging into the field beyond.
