Yes, I think there's more to the B&W than the impression you see on the screen. There's a grain in it that is square because of the design of the pixel on the screen. But when you print it, the pigment droplet being a precise globe softens what looks crunchy.
There are some old film footage of the Cot in action. That are flat bottomed, and I don't know if the Newfoundland Dory came first or did this, but both were used by the very same people.
The B&W experiments give an interesting look to the photo, but I much prefer the original - in color.
ReplyDeleteHmm, I thought the colour was a bit thin and tried to push it a bit just to see.
DeleteI agree, this one is perfect. The color on the boat just ties the whole scene together.
ReplyDeleteI don't know I wasn't feeling it. I don't know if it's the bluey green on the plants or what. But something isn't clicking.
DeleteI love old hand built boats.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very old design called a Cot. A river cot to be exact. The thing has a flat bottom.
DeleteI like getting the perspective of both. And I love the boat!

DeleteGreat shot, let's take her out on the water!
