Exe Marks The Spot

Like a dog worrying a bone, I feel a fervid desire to draw together the themes of the last week. They need to be nailed down and put to rest in the hope of fresh inspiration. So I shall cast off threes, estuaries, monochrome and mud. For how long? Who knows.

So one last gasp; two men, three boats, mud, the Exe Estuary, in glorious, sun-kissed monochrome.

I thank you.

I like the story that comes with two men, three boats, and an estuary. You and Peter make me want to write.

Oh, no, no, no.

I thank YOU.

Perfect. I wish I could see a bigger version, it gets lost on the huge screens here :) I could most certainly pull up a chair and sit in front of a whopping 8' x 6', and yeah, those are feet ;)

Thanks, Peter

Waiting for the results now then, Pauline

Accepted, Josephine, it's a pleasure

Thanks, Lever. I'll happily send you the original full-size file and you can do with it what you wish. Email me at dave (at) canbush.com

I did art lessons in primary school, one of the pictures I was given to copy was one of three fishing boats, for some reason this reminded me of it.
Your photo is beautifull!

It's funny how some scenes can trigger sensory experiences, the minute I saw this photo, I could smell the mudflats. Not a bad smell, but a vivid one! Sometimes I find aromas triggering memories of a particular place as well. Very cool!

Thanks, Hannelie, much appreciated.

Gargoyle, smell is a wonderful sense, isn't it? A bit underrated sometimes.
