Photographer's Note

Visiting Exmouth today we came upon this unusual harbour scene...
The gentle man in red is the owner of the vehicle that became stuck in mud whilst attempting to retrieve a boat.

Hi Les!

Wow, what and how on earth did the pick up ended up soaked in the water? Wow, poor guy, how unfortunate for him. This scene is intense, love the action going on in here. Great capture!

keep safe!
Matt

Getting a good shot is often about being in the right place at the right time, and that's certainly the case here as you have came across an usual and interesting situation. You have composed the shot very well with a strong diagonal line running from the tractor, through the rescue workers and continuing to the submerged vehicle. The chap in the bright red jacket gives foreground interest too.
