Project 52: Week 25 - Going Nowhere

A dinghy belonging to the Paimpont Canoeing & Kayaking Club, kept in readiness in case of emergencies during training of youngsters.

I'm no sailor, but I think that's meant to be in the water...and excellent shot none the less.

[Mark Prince]

@graemestevens Graeme, I think it's due to the latest raft of over zealous Health and Safety rules. Boats must be kept on land in case they get too wet.

Wonderful B&W shot Richard.

[Tracy Lea Oh]

Oh so lovely, that weathered dock in Black and White

[gloria jones]

Terrific composition...I like the rippling water

[Taffy]

Wonderful composition -- nice lines from the pier through the boat, and layers of pier, lake, trees, and sky.

[Margo Sayer]

VML the range of Nature's textures. Also reminds me of the Girl Guides' motto, Be Prepared. I presume, the now Scouts have the same motto?

[Margo Sayer]

Yep, still the same!

[Richard Sayer]

@graemestevens @markp This new edict came out of some in-depth research which revealed that there are tens of thousands of recorded cases of ships and boats sinking whilst in the water, but not a single case of a vessel sinking on dry land... or dry dock - res ipsa loquitur!

[Mark Prince]

@vignouse Richard, for once, I think this new policy might improve safety.

[Larry L]

super!

[Jasper]

Good lines and composition.

[Kathy]

The shot, beling in B&W, gives a feeling of winter to me. No people, no other boats or houses. So alone.

[Dyan Stevens]

It's like the river is teasing the dingy. Jump in you know you want to. Fantastic shot.

[Debs Stott]

I like the leading lines you've got here, starting with the ramp on the left, down to intersection and then along to the dinghy... fav

[Liz Hammond]

I really like this shot, lovely composition, lead in lines and beautiful black and white & with that lovely twist of the boat not being in the water, but above it. It makes you look longer.

[Tom]

Great detail and tonal balance

[Francesca Ciarrocchi]

Super b&w shot!

[Annie D]

really great composition Richard - the textures, lines and geometry balances well
