Boat Cove Fisherman

This is Andy, and if you think that you have seen him before, you have.
This is a re-working of an old pic on here, called Sorting Nets

He is one of the few remaining fishermen at Dawlish, Devon.
Seen here,sorting out his nets, before taking to sea again in his small boat.

Hope you like it.
Thanks for looking.

    I like the sepia effect you have given this shot , nive work Richard.

  • The Last Look replied

    Thank you Irene.
    I tried a few different ways, including that ‘Vintage’ style, but it didnt suit.
    I think this looks good, and better than the B&W version.

    The treatment makes this shot even better Richard.

  • The Last Look replied

    Thanks Roy.
    It took a while to find something that will suit it better than B&W, and I think I chose right.

    I have viewed this wonderful image quite a few times Richard and for some reason apparently not left a comment, well that’s sorted now, the sepia toning was a perfect choice for presentation,
