The Assignment Photo

Photographer’s Note

A double assignment:

for the fishermen,
go to sea and get some fish !

for me,
go to sea, and get some fishermen !

I hope we both had a nice catch to bring back home early morning at 6 o'clock, they with their boat, me with the 5D.

what is that dark spot in the middle. i can presume it is smoke from the motorboat. and hence giving u full marks. coz there is not much that i can complain about the shot. especially the sunlight which works here like a magic

Well, you certainly did alright, especially with that puff of black smoke against the evening sky, lovely light, and nicely worked compo.

Namaste Anand. Terrific ambience here with strong colours, waves crashing and men busy with their trade. The sky is beautiful and the white crests on the waves provide a fine contrast. Excellent light bathes the scene. Well done. Regards. Klaudio.

hello Anand,

I really love the colours you have got here just around sunrise.>!!the reflection on the sea is very good and a very candid shot of the fishermen...though the burning visible at the sides of the fishermen...but looking very good with the compo and colours taking the lead..well written note..!!

Regards,

Hello Anand,

Wow, there's an engine that could use a revision! Then again, in India it will probably run for another two years! Lucky you, since the smoke really adds to your picture hahaha.

Great shot. The guy ready to jump to the beach and pull the boat further up. The waves in the background, the sky and the smoke showing where they came from. Nice one!

Greetings, Dennis

Hi Anand,

Wonderful image .. the soft beautiful dawn .. with a powerful sea and some powerful characters .. well seen and captured .. the tone of the water is tremendous .. I am not sure (in the truest sense of I don't know what to think) of that giant central smoke cloud from the boat .. it is so disturbing to the scene .. good, bad, .. you have given me something to contemplate .. obviously it was there .. great image.

take care,

John
