Thanks frex, I was also gonna say that was my favourite. el-Ignoramus I really like your subject matter. Do you go out looking for specific things to shoot or just wait for whatever you see? Are the shots of the boats near where you live?

Dunno if this question is for me but I will answer it: Both!
One of these days I will be going to a pharmacy. They have a wonderful tropical saltwater fishtank there. This is a specific shooting :-)
On my way to the pharmacy I might be able to take the one or the other nonespecific shot! LOL!

Are the shots of the boats near where you live?

Yes they are! I live in the town of Emden which has a big sea-port with plenty big and small ships! I am going to post some more soon!

Pretty...good shot!!

[a_slosh]

frex they were originally aimed at el-Ignoramus but don't worry - it's interesting to find out how people come across their shots. I forgot that you had also posted pictures of boats as I was referring to the small row boats.

Thanks a lot, glad you liked it, well I rarely set-up my subjects/objects, I rarely go anywhere without my camera, and I'm quite shutter happy nowadays, so I take lots of pics, stiffle through them later and post what I like, sometimes after I go back to the same pictures I crop and post another part, or find a disacarded image that looks nice.

The boats is in Alexandria, that's one of the major coastal towns in Egypt, and sadly it's a three hours drive from Cairo where I live, but I like going there as much as possible specially in winter when the whole town is covered in this mystical air

Did this in the darkroom years ago at college.

I like the big old and "dark" buildings...there is a story to each of them.
Nice view from this angle

[littleMatt]

Yeah. It’s Croydon clock tower, which is a beautiful building... Shame about its surroundings though
