The Boat Barn


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   The Boat Barn
The Boat Barn

Along the Kennebec River, in Bath Maine, craftsman / artisans still make custom wooden boats for the most discerning sailors. When these red doors open a beautiful boat will be seen, a real work of art, and will be seaworthy and ready for the water.

Canon 28-135 IS at 53mm. Mid Morning, ISO 200, 1/250th @ f11.0, EC 0. 1 image, 5 exposure HDR processing. (CA)

Very nice use of the shapes and blocks of color in your composition here, Jeff, and nice texture, too. The eye definitely goes right to the red :)

  Love all the lines, textures, patterns - gosh, this capture is full of wonderful EOD lines...course, the red is certainly the attention-getter here but love the yellow-trimmed windows and the blue of the upper windows also - a great find and an even better eye to spot this! Well done on both counts, Jeff!
