Stranded

[Conk]

Actually this is what happens when the tide goes down I suppose. :/ Doesn't look as though it was used for much though. Not sure about the shadow. I guess it ruins the shot somewhat.

Hmm....good subject but the angle desn't work for me...too frontal I guess

I kind of like this shot, the shadow doesn't really bother me that much. It sort of adds to the futility of the boat being high and dry. My only suggestion is have you tried it in B&W or sepia to see what impact that might have?

Thanks Sandy. I thought of it but haven't gotten around to it. Go ahead and give it a shot if you'd like. :D

Thanks for the offer, just a simple conversion and a little tweaking on the shadow, I actually darkened a little in both the B&W and the Sepia

I really think there is a lot of possiblities with this photo just play around and see what you get.

Yes, looks good Sandy. I'll try something similar with some noise and sepia.

I love this shot Conk. The sepia one does have a certain appeal to it as well. Nicely done.
