Boats, and more boats!

Yes, yes, I know that today’s theme for Photo 101 is water and not boats! But you see – unbeknownst to me, I was harboring (pun intended) a fascination for boats ever since I’ve moved to the sea-side city.

So I have lots of photos indeed of boats on a beach. I like how it adds an other dimension to the seascape. Chennai has a thriving fishermen population and you see fishing boats almost everywhere on the seashore. I get quite curious to see them preparing their nets early morning. Venturing out into the sea in their humble little motorized boats, praying they’ll get a good catch. A lot of effort goes indeed to get the fish onto your plate.

It’s staring back at you.

And here’s one vertical shot as well!

Oh, and do screenshots from video games count? 😛 This one’s from Skyrim, one of the most beautiful games ever made! So I do a fair bit of ‘photography’ inside the game world too.
