Description

The Galilee Fisherman untethers his trawler from its moorings in preparation for a long trip at Sea.
Notice the black nail polish. I did some research on this. Many commercial fisherman wear clear or black polish to protect their nails from the harsh marine environment.
Please check out the full version linked below. It shows great detail in the many elements of the photo.

Another good capture of the scene Michelle. I think the first had a slightly stronger composition. The black fingernails are kind of freaky though.

Thanks guys. I wish I had a bit more room above. This photo though is little cropped from the original. No cropping was done above. Just to the sides and below.

Black finger nails???

Protection, that I didn't knew!!

Are you sure that in night time he isn't some goth entertainer in a bar?? just joking.
I like it, I see what you mean with the space above, but it really doesn't bother me. I really like the colors on this one, that yellow/red chain against the rust looks nice and the blues are great.
Nice work MsM.

Thanks Vasco. Funny you mentioned Goth! That's what I first thought although the rest of him doesn't seem to fit that scene.

Nice too but the first had a better background imho.

Colourful. I like the composition here, and agree with Patrick about the background.

Cool capture of life. Black nail polish is a plus.

Lacks decent highlights to provide good contrast; looks dull.

Orange chain is too distracting.

Fairly ordinary shot, needs something else to make it special.

I like these two last photos of yours. I never knew about the nailpolish thing. Great shot.
