Wyre wreck from yesteryear

Wyre wreck from yesteryear

Taken with a Canon 50D, Sigma 10-20 lens at 10mm, F11, shutter speed 1/40 second ISO100 tweaked in Photoshop

Another shot from my recent meetup up with redbubble legend (or is that leg end Jase?....ony kidding mate) Jason Connolly, we went to a wonderful location on the banks of the river Wyre. The area is Fleetwood marsh nature reserve which has many wrecks that have been left to rot away, it is also a great area to see many wading birds.

I had a chat we Jase about whether a b&w shot would work, here is my effort!!

    Great. This appears from memory, starker than the colour shot. The colour shot was softened by the old painting on the front of the boat which here has merged in with rest of boat.
