Graveyard Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Early morning in the graveyard of fishing boats, in the southern corner of old Jaffa port.

This boats are laying there like dead whales, waiting for what - a buyer, and metal trader?

I know that the sky is white, but IMO it supports the composition in this case.

WOW - great shot! Love the details, colours, design. The screw propeller looks like buterfly's wings, almost transparent.
Well seen!

No problem with the white sky on this one, Itzik. And you're eventually back to a rusty - and graphically interesting - subject with this old boat. The glittering screw provides a surprising and welcome contrast and the tight framing works quite well on this one.

Very good, Itzik! My eye has fallen on this image at once in the thumbnail gallery, it looks so unusual. I like your POV very much, you kind of throw this old rusty boat in the eye of the viewer and one has to beware of the propeller!;) Very strong image!

Cheers
Alexander

Hi Yitzhak,
Wonderful POV here and good cropping of this scene. I like different and contrasting colours and rust on the boat. Looks like a big bomb.

Hi Yitzhak

I quite like the buoy shot from a day or 2 ago, as well as this one. Good pov with excellent sharpness. It might be interesting to see this in b&w? Good work & tfs!

A properly composed photo with a strong and powerful image. Your point of view is the big eason for it.

Hi Itzik,
Unusual but excellent composition. I was just working on this picture and something emerged. I wasn't sure whether to share this with you or not but finally decided to do so. This was just to put more emphasis on the propellor and negate the white sky. I hope you won't mind my experimentation.
