man and the sea

Sunrise walk in Cairns, Australia.
A local fisherman casting his net as it started to pour with rain.

I shot this one photo, threw the camera in to a bag and ran to the hire car.

Great capture. Really peaceful. I really like the color and the stop action of the net in the air. It really gives you feel for whats happening.

Thankyou all for your comments. The STF is a wonderfully supportive community. This was a lucky shot I guess. Maybe the new job (school photography) has honed my timing. Regards, Simon Bennett.

Simon, The colors and lighting are stunning. Perfectly composed...the fisherman and his net lead your eyes to the lightest part of the background. Fine image. Roberta F.
