Tugboat on a misty Drammens fjord.


The Monochrom monday concept came from Aileni at LOOSE ENDS

Utrolig til hestekrefter i slike båter.
Ser kaldt og gufsete ut på bildet.

Ønsker dere en flott uke.

The barge looks like it might handle like a brick - needs a powerful tug.
Makes a great picture.

The water look's very smooth but cold and icy....
It's amazing how they float with all that cargo....
Lovely... :-)

I guess colors are not far from being the true ones.
This tugboat with all its mechanics is perfect in B&W.
Love the mist in the horizon, fits perfectly to the subject.

Such clear detail in this B&W photo and the reflection is wonderful.

Impressive picture, I like the fog in the background.

Den er der jo selvfølgelig noe jeg har sansen for. Fine mønstre i den båten.

PS Sporadisk blogging nå de nærmeste ukene

Et flott bilde som gjør seg supert i sort/hvitt.
For noen krefter som er i sving.

Wonderful reflections in the water. You can almost hear the boat's engines.

That's a big tugboat! I love the surface of the water, and the mist on the hills.

Seems like I say this every time I come by, but this is mind blowing. The lighting, the composition, tonal range, contrast... everything. And a smooth blend from the knife sharp foreground to the softer, misty background.

Amazing. truly amazing.
