[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A walk along the eastern shore of Lake Hovsgol, revealed this rusty old ship's boiler, abandoned on the shoreline. In the bg, are boats & ships coming & going from Russia, before the lake freezes over in winter.

It was wonderful to see such green grass, & so much water, after the barren moonscape of the Gobi desert, further south.

Apologies for the small size, but that's what the UB film lab scanned the negatives to cd as (597 pixels). In Korea, the film labs scan them at 1700 p, so enlargement is possible, whilst still maintaining resolution & quality.

Hi Chris,
beautiful nostaljik composition.Beautiful harmony of the colours.Congratulations.Necla.

Hello Chris! Very interesting topic. Wonderful boiler. Amazing ships in the background. Splendid colours. Good luck!

Nice capture - a beautifully balanced dynamic range, no shadow too deep, no highlight too high, it almost has a HDR effect.
Well composed of course! Placement of the old boiler is perfect IMO.

Hi Chris,

Nice POV here. It's a sad statement about mankind, that we tend to dispose of things this way. Beautiful, vivid colors with excellent DOF to show the ships so clearly in the distance.

Best regards,
Werner
