A fishing boat waits patiently for a day out besides a deserted café

Fishing Boat.

The harbour in winter is spookily devoid of people . You see the evidence of them just not the people themselves. I wanted to bring that emptiness into the photos I took.

Another shot I took while walking around the harbour in Hals. The light and dark tones were what first attracted me to this still life shot.

The contrast between the packing case and the rest of the scene makes the shot for me.

I think there is always something sad about a boat on land. They just don’t belong.

One of the shots from my recent trip to Denmark. I choose to shoot with my Hasselblad 203FE and 80 mm lens. I took along some T-Max 400 asa and shot off four rolls in the short time I had.
The film was developed in T-max soup for 6mins and 45 secs at 20°C. The Negatives were scanned using my Epson V700 and Betterscanning.com holder.
