[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is actually a continuation of my last picture, it is taken at the same park as the picture posted yesterday and funnily enough it was taken from the right handside of it.

Another pic for the Scav hunt.

Here in the picture you can see a fence, I am not sure why the fence is actually in the water and not on the outside???? so I was wondering, however, if you can see the fence, it is not actually perfect, well is anything these days? but what I am trying to get at is that there could be a large creature in the water that is causing the damage.

This fence really wanted me take its photo because of its location and the reflection, because I have seen a lot of reflective picture work these past few days on TE.

So here is my contribution.

The answer to what is causing the damage to the fence will be revealed tomorrow, NOTE UPDATE

Ok, here is the answer, it is caused by 8 Giant swans which are 6 feet in height and weigh about 30kgs or more and you can fit 2 people inside one of these and paddle using your feet, like cycling and yes people do crash into the metal bars!!!



I hope you like it

Hi Daniel,

Good story here, i´m waiting for tomorrow.

In this photo i like the prespective.

Well done

The fence curving through the frame makes for a good composition, Dan, and establishes a nice perspective. Good contrast and colors in the shot, and nice "cliffhanger" element in your note - I'll be checking back.

The fence is great. Whatever it should protect is sure to get the message - out there in the water. Looking forward for the continuation Dan ;-)

Hola Dani:

Nice contribution for the hunt!
And an enigmatic fence you found there...

I am wondering about the creature damaging the fence!!! You are very imaginative!
Thanks!!!

Kikvel

extraordinary picture, I wonder what is in the water?

Nice composition Daniel, nice curve created by this fence and intriguing story ! I also like the depth in you photo with this light blur in the background focusing on the main subject, well done.

Interesting. I like the textures in this and the colors. And this is really interesting out there. Like it was set up for something and then it flooded. It reminded me of my shots I took when the park by me was flooded a few months back. I really like the clean, reflective, silver of the fence against everything else in the shot. Also the emptiness of the scene adds to the haunting feel of this shot. Really asks the question what is happening here. Nicely done.

Godzilla, perhaps?

Good use of linear perspective.

Qu'est ce donc? tu mes notre curiosité à rude épreuve jusqu'a demain, on attends. Bravo pour la composition,de beux coloris également.

Perhaps it's becouse of ebb & flow of water,but you captured in nice moment & a fine subject you find,very nice work,great perspective & real colors,and a nice composition you managed here,I like it.
You did great,Dan!

Nice shot Daniel,
Very good composition, I like the lines in it, the depth and the colours, very good job

Interesting picture and note Daniel. I'm looking forward to finding out why the fence is there. Nice compo with the fence leading you into the shot.

Excellent composition, great perspective, good light and color in photo, pts. later out today.
