Lurid Light Burghead

Burghead, Moray, Scotland.

Some of the most sumptuous and lurid after storm light i have ever come across it really was quite astonishingly vivid. I used a soft 0.45ND grad to hold detail in both lit and unlit areas at Burgheads ancient harbour.

Very symbolic, Ian, very. Boats are the true messengers of man's innocence, necessary innocence, towards or against the elements. Docked boats always have a boyish readiness. Transient light is there, yes, but together with our own frail transitoriness, very well represented by that fishing boat. I come from a place where people have always had to fight their way through the hostile ocean to earn a living. The false quietness of this photo says a lot to me. A peaceful ship will always mean beauty and shadows hanging about the place; pride and melancholy.
Bravo for your pics Ian: you're a master of both composition and light! The vision and the beyondness (please forgive that neologism).
Cheers
