Home and rested
For many of us, boats hold a special magic; the promise of adventure, freedom or just a good day fishing. This jukong was resting on the shores of Home Island, Cocos Islands. A calm and quite moment, yet I’m sure this boat could tell a tale or two of the sea, the elements and the people it has carried.

Wonderful colors
Deborah Parkin
beautiful work as always Louise – i love the soft gentle colours and tones in the sky and although the overall picture is gentle the colours on the foliage and ground become much stronger and l love that. The composition is perfect too – looks a wonderful place to be.

I was tempted to say I don’t like it Louise. But I figured it was just jealousy and that you would figure it was just jealousy. Bet there were bugs, and spiders, and little crabs that climbed into your bed at night, and nasty snakes. So what, is this the first of a series designed to make us all jealous. I’m not jealous. Allright I’ll admit it is a lovely photo. And it is good to have you back too.
And thanks for your comment on ‘Free’.
Louise Cooke
Thank for your kind words Ozczecho, Alistair and Anton..I think?! Funny thing is Anton, there aren’t even many nasties…no snakes at all, and not too many bugs! The only new thing for me were the reef sharks you share the water with and you get used to them quickly because they’re so timid. Are you REALLY jealous now??!!!

What an unassuming image, that just gets better the longer you look at it. You’ve really picked out a lovely composition here, that’s made of colour and variety of texture.
