[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
3 knots, maybe just a simple thing in the daily life of the boat crew, all knowing how to define a knot:

A knot is a method for fastening or securing linear material such as rope by tying or interweaving. It may consist of a length of one or more segments of rope, cord, webbing, twine, string, strap or even chain interwoven so as to create in the line the ability to bind to itself or to some other object - the "load". Some knots are well adapted to bind to particular objects such as another rope, cleat, ring, stake or to constrict an object. Decorative knots usually bind to themselves to produce attractive patterns

I like that image.
is a very nice simple composition. great idea, focus, light and colors!
thanks, ciao

Beautiful light on the varnished wood and ropes. I like the clear separation of the foreground from the blurred background.

Nice maritime detail shot,Jack!Nice play of light in it.Very well seen and captured!
Good note!

Great focus, nice colors, excellent composition and an interesting note as a bonus.

Superbe photo Jack, j'aime beaucoup.
Bravo !
Nico.

This is so simple and undemanding as a photograph, but it's so evocative. It puts any sea lover in a nice state while looking at it. The colors are very complimentary and the tonal range is excellent.

Hi Jack,
I have been at the Navy as an ordinary soldier 45 years ago, I know many buttons with rope work, these picture is very sharp and clear.
Well seen!
Greetings,
John.

Very efficient use of the shallow DOF in this one, Jack. Combined with the nice light you had, the resulting focus on the detail with the knots and railing has a beautiful "still life" quality. Interesting notes, too.

great shot of the knots here, very orderly and the lighting is finely controlled here, well done

So simple, so sharp, so graphic, so beautiful. excellent close up, Jack, a fantastic shot. a ver good note as well.

Here's nice DOF, my son is sitting next to me and says: just a picture for me:-))
And it is, I love these details and you did a great job, Jack, thanks for sharing ! !

Magnifique cette photographie le sujet de ces gréement à voile est fort intéressante. J'aime cette image. Amicalement/jr

Hi Jack,
nice picture, I like very much the light here.
The DOF is perfect, very good sharpness !
It's graphical, nice colors !

Very nice picture of thos knots... and I would add that the speed for a boat is always in knots. Anyway, about your picture, I like very much the DOF and the colors are perfeclty handeled. Well done!

Nice presentation Jack, nicely framed with very good DOF, great colors and details, well seen and done.

Hi Jack

Very good dof & sharpness,with excellent lighting that has accentuated the texture in the ropes. Well done!

Sorry for coming late on a composition from elements i like very much;
This three part, three objects composition is magic. Well done for the quality, we have here great textures and a realistic relult for wood and rope.
I like it very much

Bonjour Jack
J'aimerais bien que l'équipe des marins de T.E regardent cette photo; il s'agit de Bebel et Sophie; je suis sûr que cela leur fera plaisir.
C'est une jolie composition parfaitement cadrée et une bonne lumière latérale.

Hello Jack
I would like well that the sailors' team of T.E look at this photograph; it is about Bebel and Sophie; I am sure that that will please to them. It is a pretty perfectly tallied composition with a good side light.

Nu vet vi allt om knopar. Mycket tjusig bild. Framförallt är färgerna och ljuset perfekt. Linjerna från tamparna blir också fina.
Magnus

Beautiful warm coloring and sharp still of these 3 knots with a perfect DOF in contrast to that cooler blurred background. Nicely done Jack.

Une profondeur de champ gerée a merveille pour un cadrage tres bien vu.
Une bonne netteté se fait sentir ici bravo Jack

Very nice sharpness, colors and lighting! Nice job!
