Great shot black and white adds loads, sky is awsome, well done
I never drink water because of the disgusting things that fish do in it.
W. C. Fields
Mallacht, I can no longer hold back. I find you to be a perceptive reviewer but there is one thing about your posts that drive me nuts: the inclusion of the W.C. Fields “quote” at the end of each one. And the reason I get so annoyed is that W.C. Fields NEVER SAID THAT. What he did say was: “I never drink water because fish f*ck in it”. Much more funnier, I think you will agree. Some “polite” compilers of quotes (e.g. Des McHale) include your version but it robs the quotation of all it’s power and makes it bland and inoffensive. The very things that the great W. C. would have railed against.
Shot is an absolute cracker.. .As for the steps/life belt issue, they both add to it for me…
The steps do draw the eyes down the path as though you can imagine walking down in that weather..
Love the B & W conversion aswell.. Will be over that way in New Years so will be out and about..
Very fine shot. Full of drama. The only thing that slightly bugs me is the life-belt holder – I find my eyes being drawn to it and thus it lessens the drama of the overall scene somewhat. (I am nitpicking big-time here). On occasions like this I find the inclusion of a chainsaw in one’s gadget bag to be invaluable. I take it that you have yet to add one to your equipment list.
nevereven saw the life belt holder, very dramatic sky great shot!
