I go very seldom to Punta del Este. I am not interested in the noise, glamour and famous people that it attracts in the summer. When I get there, I make a bee line to the harbor and walk to the fishing dock, where my favorite subjects are waiting in the winter light.
Near noon, there is brisk work on cleaning fish.
which attracts a lot of seagulls.
and sometimes, seawolfs too. This is one of the characters that were around the fish cleaners, hoping to get something.
There are courageous boats, waiting for the order to go out on the ocean in the thick fog.
Most of the boats were just moored after the day work, or maybe waiting for better weather.
Technical: Nikon FE, several lenses, FP4+ in Beutler.

Julio, muy buen fotorreporteje !! me gusta mucho la segunda fotografía. Que angular usaste ? La FE me pareció muy buena cámara, la usé cuando trabajé en el diario, la tenía con motor y volaba. En estos días estoy armando una Nikon F Photomic que había desarmado para reparar y ajustar, cunado esté lista la saco a la calle. Te mando un abrazo. Pedro Barbachán.
ReplyDeleteGracias Pedro, el angular es un Nikkor 28mm/f2.8. La FE era de mi padre, realmente es práctica y los lentes me tienen asombrado.
ReplyDeleteSuerte con esa F, seguro que le vas a sacar partido!
Nice perspectives on that subject with the 28mm lens. Seems to encourage a broad view of the subject in the environment while also helping with relating foreground and background elements of the composition. The added depth of field is also a plus on those gray days.
