SO SAD TO WATCH GOOD THINGS GO BAD. MONOCHROME.

This is another from the Monochrome archive, it shows a couple of old fishing boats left to rot on one side of the Hayle Estuary.
The image was taken around Twenty Five years ago, and these wrecks are still there.
I find somthing very sombre about seeing what must have been beautiful boats, so full of energy and life on the waves left like this.

  4. I agree with you Monty, there is something rather sad about such sights and your black and white photo portrays that perfectly.

  5. Ciao Monts, when I see the remains of a boat, I wonder how many adventures could tell.
