Rowing is another photo is the “At the beach” series. Boats like the one pictured here carry lifesaver club names and are used in inter club races. This one was manned by four girl crew and a male skipper – trainer.

I usually spot a lot of photo opportunities around me but this old boat was spotted by my son, who found the volume of barnacles on the boat’s hull quite fascinating. I just thought it made a fantastic find especially with the very clear reflection of it.

When I first stared to take photographs I took all of them in Black and White. For years that was my favourite technique – hight contrast, perhaps a bit too dramatic monochrome shots. The photography club I belonged to provided the film in unlimited supply so that was an added insensitive to stay with the format.

With arrival of digital photography colour was it and only recently I have started to use black and white conversions again. This is a perfect solution for street photographs or situations where a bit more dramatic effect is desired.

Here is a man and his boat . Simple black and white photo, which actually doesn’t work as a colour capture at all.
