Default Ruth - Neglected.
Saw this little river boat on my walkabout yesterday in the snow, wanted to try and capture the sad neglect this boat is going through as it slowly falls apart. Not really tried much in the way of black and white prints. So I hope this works on some level.
David.

Ruth - Neglected.

Thank you for your kind words, I am glad you like it. And yes I like the reflection too, shame I missed the bottom half of it.

The b&w works an absolute treat! Love the way it fills the frame too - perfect
