Caught red handed


Frollicking on the harbour in 'Radar' a Balmain Heritage ferry, I befriended this old codger and his wife who both had a great sense of humour.


So would I, if I had a hip-flask in my back pocket!

Beautiful reflection of the hand!

Marvellous reflections on that beautiful shiny red. I trust Radar was going to remain on dry land, or at least, not at the helm!

Nice eye for detail.

I just came back from a trip movie from Australia with "The tree"

It's great post and I love the title:)
Happy weekend to you Julie!

Julie said...

Oo ... I do not know this film, Sarah ... but it does interest me. It is fascinating to hear an Australian-French film with French sub-titles. Thank you for the heads-up ...

This is a very clever piece. I like that twist in the tale as well as they way it fits the reflection theme. Plus beautiful hand photography as well.

Very good idea for a reflection.

I can just imagine his hand tapping out a rhythm on the red rail

Peter said...

it is a nice vessel too

Julie said...

Yes, indeed, the series of images (7 in total) make the tapping rhythm most explicit.

Am always drawn to your hands photos. Funnily enough I've always been drawn to hands - all my life. These are beautiful with those reflections. Like that last shot too.

Expressive. The hand. The photos.

My favorite is the first shot! I could the head of the dog as reflected. The red is so intense!

James said...

You are very creative. I'm always looking for new reflection ideas. This is very good!

Julie said...

Thank you friends, thank you James. It is your meme that has awakened these sad old eyes to the slightest hint of a relection in her environment.
