Foto Friday - Favourite Foto



It was sunset and we were leaving the Venice Jetty in our bus when I spotted this cyclist on the bridge above. I whipped out my camera to take a shot as the bus was making a turn and I only had the time to make one shot. What was worse was that the low battery warning was on! The photo could have been better but for a snapshot, I think it is okay. I like dawn and sunset because of the mixture of light and darkness.
This picture tells me that the day is done and everybody is returning to the warmth and comfort of home where the loved ones are waiting.

I too like the silhouette effect Lee. The picture is a wonderful depiction of the end of the day.

It's wonderful. I was so caught up in the scenery I had to look more than once to see the bicyclist.

The most beautiful pictures are not always the most perfect ones.

Hi Lee: Its an interesting photo. Without reading your explanation, it really makes you think. At first I thought it was one of those tall ships (like the pirates had) before the sails went up.
