Preston Marina at Dusk

Paul Iddon

I was looking for a high contrast image to use in the B&W section for the CC this week, and when at the marina in Preston last week I found what I hoped would be a suitable subject.

The main contrast subject being the vivid red buoy at the forefront of the scene against the more muted blues and night colours of the marina area itself.

Not being a landscaper, or a major worker of black and white, I think this has e decent amount of punch. I will be entering it anyway, seeing as it is the only decent one I managed, lol..



C&C as always.
