Ship painter, a photo from Zanzibar, East

Photographer's Note

I was out on a trip outside Zanzibar, when I saw this man who painted a boat. A rather rusty boat, but I suppose the job is finished now..:)

Hello Boa,

Interesting shot, kind of funny too. Pov and crop are perfect for me, though I wish there was some more light on the man. It's difficult painting in the dark. Thanks for sharing.

Hej Boa,
I am very sorry for my late visit to your gallery! It's the lack of time to see everything I want!:(
You take very interesting photos which are often a very peculiar observation of what you see around you!
I like this scene very much :) the comparison of the huge boat and a very small man who doesn't even have a firm enough foothold under his feet, is great!
många bästa hälsningar från Moscow :)

Very well composition, TFS.

Hi Boa
They obviously don't have any workplace health and safety regulations, although I imagine that if he fell it would be a relatively soft landing and it looks like a life ring is waiting at his feet just in case. Great daily life photo and brilliant colour. TFS
Cheers
Jude

Hello Boa
I have just had a photo I posted of a boat described as a 'rusty piece of junk' - perhaps I could say the same of this boat? A good action shot with the boat in the process of being painted. Tfs, Marlene
