A Man and His Dog in a Tinny
This mono fisherman and his seadog in his little “tinny” were setting out for some night fishing when I photographed them from the south bank of the Hastings River in Port Macquarie , Australia, just on sunset on a winter day with my trusty old Fuji S5500 exactly two years ago.
The reason I held on to it until now was that no matter how I processed the original colour image or what black and white conversion I applied, it just didn’t work for me.
So when I obtained Lightroom and Photoshop CS3, I gave it another go and really like the result.
Fuji S5500: f/4 @ 1/400sec, hand held.

Great shot it looks fab in the frame. I always thought a Tinny was a Beer? You learn something new every day with RB.

You are quite correct. “tinny” is slang for a can of beer AND for little aluminium boats. 8-)

Excellent shot Dennis, I like this in B&W, perfect choice, the shining water with the silhouette. Very effective.

Yes, the higher quality of B&W image produced from Lightroom and Photoshop CS3 really showed when I compared this with an earlier version. 8-)
