Nets in Fleetwood Fish Docks

Nets in Fleetwood Fish Docks, originally uploaded by Bay Photographic.

While staying on the boat for a few days, I made the short journey to Fleetwood to photograph the Fish Docks. I was lucky that the light was sharp and fresh, and the level suited the RAW shots processed (as single files) in Photomatix. I liked the range of textures in these nets, and the colours of the materials used, but as I was taking these shots, I was aware of being warily observed by a number of trawlermen and dock workers. I'm quite sure they found me about as fascinating as a discarded fish tail, but it was a timely reminder that one man's interesting texture is another man's livelihood.
