Caramel swirl

Caramel swirl

Canon 5D, 70-200mm at 70mm, f/2.8, 3.2”, ISO 400, pre-dawn, hand-held, texture added

The right part of the wreck is no longer there, storms took a metre of sand or so, and that part of the keel collapsed. The council removed it. I hope they’ve retained it!

  1. Another from the SS Dicky Series

    That’s an interesting texture Mel, it makes the whole scene chilling and foreboding and a bit ethereal…

    A great example of how the right title can really add to the creative context of the shot. I know I’m a write – so a bit biased. But without question words have a place in photography too.

    Wonderful mood about this one, the warm glow gives a great effect to the motion of the water.

    Pure Dicky magic in the hands of the master renderer – all the more poignant now that it is no longer there.

  • Mel Brackstone replied

    I agree Geoff, the wreck just doesn’t have the same interest now that the best part of the keel is missing! Thanks for dropping by :)
