The U3A Photography Group topic for June was Yachts. This photo of a Yacht in the fog was submitted by Paul Mulvaney.
On a foggy morning the yacht was isolated from everything giving it an ethereal look. Without a horizon it was drifting on its own, even though there were at least 5 other yachts moored within a few metres of it. This emphasised the reason it was moored as it would have been too dangerous for it to try to navigate, as well the lack of breeze would have only allowed it to drift on the tide with possible disastrous consequences.
The photo was taken with a shutter speed of 1/320 th of a second, aperture of f/5.6 and ISO100 at 40mm focal length.
