Another view of Port Isaac the opposite direction of yesterdays image looking up from the harbour toward the town.

Thank you everyone who commented and offered suggestions on yesterdays monochrome your thoughts on the image are really appreciated

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.

Amazing composition. In fact, everything works wonderfully. You keep impressing me shot after shot.

Just like a scene from the TV series, I recognise the little houses on the hill. Good to see the boat from a different angle.

18 Mar 2013 7:51am

@kiwisa: Doc Martin's house is just up the hill on the right, although you can't go in it gets lots of visitors walking up to it

I've wanted to visit Port Isaac since I saw it on the Doc Martin TV series. Great composition in this shot.

what a lovely little boat - reminds me of a kids bath toy :) Such a beautiful little town...a great shot.

Quite a surreal view with the vanishing tide!

Perfect placement of the boat in the frame, Doug, and I love the clouds. Excellent shot!

Jules from Drayton, United Kingdom

wonderful perspective

Eric Cousineau from Sherwood Park, Canada

There is always something sad about a boat left grounded as the tide goes out! Nicely captured Doug! ;-)

Carol from Leamington, Canada

Great dof taking me off to that house in the distance..... looks like a bit of a soggy situation there. The boat is in tiptop shape, nice colours and detail Doug... I like!

Martine from bousval, Belgium

Une très belle composition

Ainsley from Derbyshire, United Kingdom

love these boat shots, amazing the condition underneath, must take a lot of work to maintain as they are permanently stuck in salt water.

Heinz from Hamm, Germany

Sehr schön mit dem Boot im Vordergrund.

Perfectly captured

Lena from San Francisco, United States

Great angle, nice framing.

18 Mar 2013 2:44pm

Elaine Hancock from Rockville, United States

Great POV with the brightly colored boat in the foreground. I like how the rope in the back of the boat leads the eye right to the middle of the town.

18 Mar 2013 2:49pm

Mhelene from Villiers-sur-Marne, France

Superb framing !

18 Mar 2013 3:18pm

Slackwater - Don from Spokane, United States

The tilt of the beached boat makes it very eye-catching. Neat shot.

my-ky from Ontario, Canada

Your pov is excellent here, Doug!

Jeff from Pembroke Dock, United Kingdom

For one fleeting moment I thought it was a wheeless chariot, but no !, it's a cracking shot of a little boat bursting to get back to sea again, nice one Doug . ;>)

18 Mar 2013 3:58pm

@Jeff: It's not even a low swinging chariot, thanks Jeff :-))

Denny Jump Photo from Easton, PA, United States

Very cool :-) That tide really has a great variance between high tide and low tide doesn't it? I think you mentioned the difference but now I need to go back and look :-) Wonderful perspective here :-)

CElliottUK from Reading, United Kingdom

That boat is really well cared for, not a barnacle in sight, and squeaky clean

18 Mar 2013 4:34pm

Christine from Ellemford, United Kingdom

I like the POV in this too

18 Mar 2013 5:02pm

B. Thomas from Arlington, Texas, United States

Nice shot. A boat always looks a little sad when it is out of the water.

18 Mar 2013 5:42pm

Ruthiebear from Titusville, NJ, United States

Great image. I like the tilt of the boat. It adds a nice color to the image.

18 Mar 2013 5:57pm

franz from Baden, Austria

very convincing perspective in this attractive scene ...

18 Mar 2013 6:42pm

Steve Rice from Olympia, United States

Excellent composition. I enjoy seeing the town right there so close.

18 Mar 2013 6:53pm

Judy aka L@dybug from Brooksville, FL, United States

This is a wonderful image, Doug ... the 'tilt' of the boat adds interest to the shot. It would be fun to see the boat righting itself as the tide comes in. *smile*

john4jack from Corvallis, Oregon, United States

excellent. i really like the 18mm focal length.

Alun from cheshire, United Kingdom

Such a cool place to visit, did you see the doc

18 Mar 2013 7:36pm

@Alun: Unfortunately the Doc wasn't in when we visited, neither was the tide :-))
