Grounded Boat

We just got back from a holiday in Mozambique. Had an absolutely awesome time. We spent Christmas and New Years there, and only got back on the 3rd of Jan. We stayed close to a town called Inhambane. It is one of the oldest towns in Southern Africa, and the oldest port(if I'm not mistaken) in Southern Africa. The town dates back to around 1550.


The area in and around the port is very flat, so there in quite a difference n water levels between high tide and low tide. It is possible to walk quite a few hundred metres out on the 'sea bed' at low tide. A lot of boats sit on the sea bed at low tide, and this is one of them. The 'Dina', as well asmost of these grounded boats are no longer in use. I shot a RAW image and processed it several times, to make up this HDR image.

I'll post some more Mozam stuff soon I hope.



Cheers
