Photographer’s Note

In the little village of Case Noyale as usual they have a chosen spot where the fishermen sell their fish and where all their boats are anchored .The boats are made of wood from a very particular tree called the 'Jack ' tree, wellknown for it's extreme hardness.The scene due to a lack of light expresses a loneliness and atmosphere.Quite often we express our feelings across our pictures.

Beautiful scene Christian - lovely colors and fantastic textures. There is something a little sad and lonely about it though - maybe it's the old-looking half beached boat, maybe the light setting... Well captured.

Nice, simple image, taken from a good angle. I would have been tempted to push the boat a bit further towards the bottom left corner.
