Bristol Docks

Posted by
Doug (Burnham-on-Sea, United Kingdom) on 4 March 2013 in Transportation and Portfolio.

Taken while we were wandering round the docks a few weekends ago, I loved the old steam tug in the background and the sea cadets in the foreground were being taught oar drill

We are away for the next 7 days and may not be able to visit your blogs to put feedback, thanks to all who visit I've pre-posted some images and will try to visit if I have time and a connection

Canon EOS 500D 1/125 second F/5.6 ISO 200 55 mm

Please excuse me if I don't get to comment people's images some days but I've had to return to a work life rather than become a pensioner as I had planned due cost of living and the tax man wanting a lump of my pension. I am making an effort to return to AM3 after a bit of an absence, it's really nice to see photo's from all contributors and I will try to comment when I can. If I offer criticism I do so only to help and I do not wish to cause offence. My photography tends to be from my travels, as well as my passion which is wildlife and landscape. I hope you enjoy what you see.
Thanks for your comments I'm really grateful for them and welcome constructive feedback.
