6,000 and counting...



It was two years ago today that I bought a bike, primarily as a photographic asset, and clocked-up 6,000 miles (9,656km) on it during this afternoon's ride to Poole Harbour, Dorset. This is where I photographed today's image of a lone dingy on a falling tide. I was determined to mark the occasion with something.

The surface of the harbour was still, and once again I had a high contrast, minimalist result in mind as I fired the shutter. Moments later a breeze sprang up and ruffled the water, and the calming effect was lost.

24-70mm f/2.8 EX DG Sigma lens. 1/160 second at f/8. +0.33 EV compensation. ISO 400. High contrast conversion in Adobe Photoshop
