Whenever I am on the water I’m on the lookout for boats to
photograph. Conditions are not always suitable for taking photos, especially as
I do not have a waterproof camera and perhaps rain is lashing down, or spray is
being blown over the boat.
After I have taken photographs I usually transfer them to an
external hard drive for viewing later on my laptop computer. If I’m at a loose
end, twiddling my fingers wondering what to do, which is not very often, I can
entertain myself by looking at the photos. Sometimes I am surprised by them
because I’m usually not too fussed about getting things in focus or capturing
specific views. Much of my photography is intuitive; I look through the
viewfinder and press the button – that’s it.
Well, here are four photos taken before and during a smack
race when there was very little wind.
Incidentally, if anyone would like a full size copy of any
of them, please let me know. I’ll gladly email a digital copy.
