Default Dead But Not Buried
This has to be one of the strangest burial grounds ever. Many years ago, there was a thriving tuna fishing industry in the Algarve, Portugal. This has long since past but there are still many signs of this once thriving industry. There was a processing factory close by here at Pedras d'el Rei and out on the Barril. These anchors have been partially buried as a reminder of all the local boats that once fished here.

Canon 5dmk2, EF24-70mm @ 50mm, 125th sec at F16 ISO 200. Converted to BW using PS calculations then to quadtone. Sharpened with Sharpener Pro.

Thanks for your comment. I will try this shot again when the light is better. It was quite a dull day.

I am glad you like this shot. I'm sure I can improve on it when I hope to take it again this year.

What a great shot, Tony, and what a haunting story to go with it.
