Some things nautical.

I've been taking lots of images these last two weeks, but i'm unable to show you them for various reasons. However, here are a few that i can show. Nothing too exciting but something a little different from the normal I show.

SHIP'S BOW


SHIP'S STERN


A WILD DOLPHIN


MELBOURNE IN B&W - Noise and contrast adding character. I'm not sure what i was looking for here but i like what i ended up with.
It doesn't look very good on the net.

Steve - The bow and stern and a bit so-so for me, but I like the dolphin its a nice capture. Out of all of them I really like the last, it has a great feel to it and I really like the treatment, excellent work!

I'm with Craig. The dolphin shot is the only winner here for me. I'm also guessing the ones you can't show were either in your face closeups of our royal masters or their boudoirs

[Nnnnsic]

I think the last two are great.

Yay! A dolphin!

And that last shot has a beautiful nostalgic feel to it.

[SteveGriffin]

I luv dolphins!

Have you been out campaigning for Greenpeace I can't imagine how or why you would be that close to the ends of a ship otherwise.

I actually do like the first 2 because in my mind there would have been significant drama involved in capturing them.

That was last pic is awesome! Love the atmosphere and feel to it.

I keep coming back to that last shot, I keep expecting old school fighter planes to fly through the sky and maybe a bomber or two. Morbid thoughts, but definitely has a Dr StrangeLove feel to it for me.

the bow and stern are very interesting Steve - not something that would be appreciated by everone - but to me they are great. nice captures

The last one has a certain 1940's feel to it as it's very grainy, I certainly like it although I find the ship a bit distracting in my point of view.
The dolphin shot is different as the colour is almost a goldy/bronze colour which I've never seen before. It's still an excellant shot!
Nice work Killa!

Steve G. - No, i am not a Greepeace activist. (Altough i am sympathetic to their cause )

The dophin is a top shot, but that last one is a classic. The contrast of the 1930-40s look verses the towering buildings - a gem

I hope you got that fish aboard. Must have taken hours to play him in! Love the last shot of Melbourne....it has a strange atmosphere about it. Like the end of the world stuff.
