River Junk May 23, 2004

I always thought it was abit of a joke that you could fish old boots, shopping trolleys and bike from a river. Obviously not. Makes you wonder what people are thinking. The local council tips are more than happy to take unwanted bikes off us. Why make a mess of the river on which your city grew?

Once again same idea ;) Nice shoot. I love the fuzzy line (not sure for my english. fuzzy line that's right ?)

Fuzzy is a word. Not sure I can see a fuzzy line though. Do you mean the one that runs from bottom left to top centre? That's the water-line of the river. Maybe it doesn't work as well in b&w as I thought. Is it not obvious that it's a river bank?

Yes, the water-line of the river. I like the cut of the line and she's blur.
River Bank ?? River junk no ?

Not blur, it gives the impression to be blur (in french "floue") :) I'am sorry for my english :)
