Almost Mono

by davidstorm

Taken on a fantastic day out last week with Shaun Wilson and his Brother-in-Law. This one is a little different; although in colour, the scene was so cold and flat that I thought it should be de-saturated as it almost looked mono anyway.

I managed to get the great man from his best angle in this shot! The view of Shaun is not bad either.

K-m, DA L 55-300mm

PS - please don't say it needs tilting - it is straight but the curving lake edge makes it look like the water is at an angle!!!

A nice shot.
I have to ask, David, since you're next to a lake, can Shaun actually walk on water or does the brilliance of his photography merely suggest he might be able to?
Best wishes,

Andrew

Andrew, I bet he thinks that he can!! I'll ask him to test the theory out the next time I see him!
