    Default Lost Time in Cordoba







    I remember many years back in time, Steve Hackett the guitarist composed a beautiful piece of music entitled 'Lost Time in Cordoba'. In reverence to that piece, I have called this 'Lost Time on the Humber'. OK, so nowhere near as romantic a setting until you listen and look together. Tetney Salt Marsh where this was taken is a sublime place of loneliness and solitude. Just like Hackett's haunting piece.

    Textbook example of the compositional rule of thirds.

    Excellent - lovely photo that one could gaze at for some time. Well done Shaun.

    Absolutely Barry, I never ever make out that I am original. If I were to take this shot again though, the post would be slightly further over to the left.

    Thank you so much for your comments.

    Agree, that would be better - but it's still a great photo nonetheless.

    Shaun,

    wouldn't it be easier to leave the post where it is and move yourself to the right instead?
