Economics

During the "credit crunch" loads of boats moored up just off Falmouth, they had been seized in the British courts after their owners went bust or just had no work. The rent in the sea around Falmouth is pretty low so at one point in the summer one of my friends saw 18 ships at once. Now most of them are off again- strangely they seem to set sail while I am taking photo's - this happened earlier in January on another shoot as well.

 

This was taken from Swanpool- I was trying to get a shot of the snow on the beach but the snow looked rubbish when I got the shots on my computer- so I cropped it out.

 

It looks much better large on black
