Black-And-White Photo Competition 4 2015 : Entry Number 595

Judges Comment

The underexposure of this makes it appear as if it is early morning or maybe even night. Great composition and somehow the boat with three people in it makes your thoughts drift away.

Photographers Comment

My name is Valdis Dannenbergs. I'm just weekend snapper. This photo I took on White Lake Co.Monaghan Ireland.The camera was on tripod and I experimented with ND Graduated filters in this sunny evening when the second boat suddenly floated in the frame. I took a chance and got this shot. I used Bronica ETRSi camera with two Cokin Grad Grey G1 and G2 filters and Fuji 100 Acros film. Exposure I metered from the shadow part of nearest boat. Film processed in D-76. Thank you very much for Mark of Excellence award.
