    Seaworthy

    This boat has been docked here for several months: it has never left harbour, and I have never seen anyone on it. This is a view of a section of the stern - it typifies the state of the whole vessel, and remarkably from my point of view, it is still afloat.

    The image is a little softer than I would like, but the boat rides up and down on the swell, naturally, so there is some subject movement compounding my shaky hands.

    Nice textures and nothing a bit of fibre glassing can't fix.

    Interesting shot, Greg...like LPaul I like the textures shown in this and this shot is full of them in every nooks and corner. I also like the B/W treatment you did here, particularly like the rope and the shadow of the nail crossing a portion of it.

    Nicely seen and captured. Judging by this example of the boat's condition I'd not leave the dock in it either

    Thanks Paul, John, Izzie and Dan. The state of this boat fascinates me. I am still waiting for the right conditions - high tide, flat swell - to attempt a better shot.

    I especially like this kind of shot that attends to a small detail. Well done and looking forward to the photograph of the ideal situation you're hoping to find.
