Shipwreck

[joebranko]

This shot was taken of a ship staged for publicity on the shore of Lake Ontario, Canada. It was located quite close to shore and the only access to view the whole vessel was from a narrow strip of beach close to the hull. The only lens which could 'see' the whole thing was my wide angle 11mm which I used here.
The day was overcast and misty but the sun started to peek thru in the late evening when this was shot.
C&C welcome and appreciated.

C&C welcome and appreciated.

Cool take, Joe!

Not only the ship looks abandoned but also the whole area… which adds
to the character of the scene.

Well done!

Very nice shot Joe! Like Kodiak, it seems to me that the overcast day has added to the mood of this shot.

I also think that your processing is spot on in the sense that you have pulled out quite a bit of detail in the boat without overdoing it

Ship looks good, the foliage framing it looks good and the whole shot works very well.
Have you tried it in color?

[Shadowman]

Nicely captured.

Very nice shot, Joe...I like that you were able to capture the whole boat. I would have struggled with a shot like this...

Nicely composed shot, Joe. What was the "publicity" for?

A new restaurant which was planned for the site. The wreck could be seen from the highway and attracted a lot of curious passersby.

Thanks Vaez. I agree about the tree. Don't worry about your English. It is perfectly understandable.

Nice capture. When you say staged, was it for a film or just as a tourist attraction?

For a new restaurant.
