I'm confused. The surf definitely looks like England, but there's some blue sky ...
I love the light, and the colour of the light, in this.
You certainly have some treasures that you're sharing with us.

Still looks cold Gary. The fisherman is well rugged up.
Notice how the fishing rod is mounted on a tripod.
Nice insight into the past Chris. It's nice to see your negs are still usable after all this time. (I expect you did some repair-work though)

An Indian summer, normally at this time of the year in the UK one would be freezing their b*lls off. Taken on the south coast near Bournemouth, if I remember correctly.

Why this image? The composition is weak and the image has no visual impact, hook or other device to to make it stand above the mundane! All of the leading lines lead the eye out of the image and there is no one point of interest. I'm guessing the image has some sentimental value to you but for me it fails to excite or interest.
I invite you to articulate your reason for posting this pic.

Posted: Sat Oct 28, 2006 1:28 amI have a different take to you Matt - I agree there is no single point of interest, but I think the juxtaposition of the semi-clutter of the fishing equipment and the emptiness of the sea, makes me feel the quiet contemplation of the fisherman...
And I think the angles formed by the rod and the right leg of the tripod do keep drawing my eyes back toward the fisherman.
Thumbs up for me!
