Waiting for the tide, a photo from Conwy, Wales

Photographer's Note

Boats moored in the muddy harbour at Rhos-on-Sea waiting for the tide to come in and an improvement in the weather. I like the arrangement of the boats and the different patterns in the pebbles here.

Hi Stephen,
Those kind of image is always surprising for me because I have never been really exposed to ocean tides and I'd expect a boat to float... in fact it looks a bit sad ann desolate, especially those lying on the side, some might see there the future of european commercial fishing as decided in Brussels !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hello Stephen,
this colour spots on the grey beach are pleasant. The tide left them dry and it is a funny arrangement almost random. The contrasts are good and the curve of the beach part in front visible by the different greys is great.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hello Stephen
Les bateaux attendant la marée forment une belle diagonale colorée qui vient se démarquer des tons pierres et galets.
Les marées ont créé des effets sur les galets conduisent l'oeil vers le fond de la photo.
C'est très bien observé, amicalement

Hello stephen. To the before times empty beach now the multicolored objects come. It looks, as if the boats waited for the tide. The photo is very well composed, because the foreground becomes the center. Beautifully. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Very compelling shot of all these lovely wooden fishing vessels moored in such a interesting random pattern.
Love this testimony to the daily rhythms.
