    wonderful, Anthony! the blue water and clouds puts this in such a great context, and the detail on the line is perfect.

    Very metaphorical, Anthony!
    The work that Sea Shepherd does is literally like walking the tightrope, I’d say!
    Or perhaps it refers the the strength of resolve and tight teamwork required to carry out their controversial work!
    Either way, this is a simple, but well conceived idea Anthony!
    Well done!

  • thanks elrobbo, I’d say yes to all the above on reflection but I just saw a nice tight rope! But absolutely agree the work they do is needed!

    I don’t necessarily condone how they carry out the work that they do, I just presumed that’s what you meant!!! If I’d known you were just taking a snapshot of a bloody knot I wouldn’t have said anything ;)
    Good work Anthony

  • lol…….you crack me up!!! I could have gone on a deep and meaningful rant but I thought I’d come clean, although I might use your descriptions on some more sea shepherd snaps! :))

    I love this Anthony! The texture! The title is just perfect too. I’m afraid I just see ‘the knot’. They’ll do what they do regardless!

  • thank you emmmee, your comments are very much appreciated.
