31 Mar 20 Reply Paul, not centred would be better but there were other boats and clutter making this the best compromise. Mar 14th
31 Mar 20 Comment Ella, this is something quite original.
An excellent idea, well put together and well photographed.
The differing scales of the various elements is interesting and very effective. 		Mar 11th
31 Mar 20 Comment What a strong image!
The story is so well told.
As has been mentioned, the bags are something of a a distraction.
Other than that, a great image.		 Mar 11th
31 Mar 20 Comment An interesting subject.
Too often such turbines are too static from a lack of wind!
Well composed and processed.		 Mar 11th
31 Mar 20 Comment An interesting subject and very well shot and processed/
The balance of the tones is very well done.
Very nice to see a film image!		 Mar 11th
31 Mar 20 Comment Peter, another super image.
The noise is a bit obtrusive.
The discussion of the noise is interesting. I have suffered from this myself, resulting in my not using an image.
The composition is good and it is good that the foregroung rock does not break the horizon.
Great stuff!		 Mar 11th
31 Mar 20 Comment An unusual and effective viewpoint.
Unlike the others I knew it was a Vulcan as I have photographed one myself.
I agree with Peter and Ed.

31 Mar 20 Comment At the point where the image was made, and looking at a map, the Wear is between 100 and 200 metres wide, perhaps 150 metres. Although both sides of the river are nowadays in Sunderland, historically they were in separate parishes until 1835. Access to the boats appears to be from the south side in what was then Sunderland Parish and the opposite side of the river is in what was then Monkwearmouth Parish.
Between the boats and the opposite side is a navigable channel.
Perhaps this sort of mooring is a North East England practice as the same thing happens on my local river, the Tyne. That river differs as it separates local authority areas, being historically the counties of Northumberland on the north side and Durham on the south side.
