03-23-14 Walking the Dog (2004)

by Scott Shephard

I have decided that Sunday's are going to be my "Flashback Day," which means that I will post something from either my recent or ancient digital or film photography past. You'll have to come back next Sunday to see if I remember saying this or if I am true to my word.

This photo was taken in 2004 from the observation deck of a cruise boat that had just docked on the island of Crete. Deb and I were on a Greek island cruise with a group of great Watertown High School students.

This is really more of a snap shot than anything, though I like the look and feel of the photo. I also like the composition, though I will admit that I knew nothing of the "rule of thirds" or of leading lines or of texture or of light and shadow, etc., etc. I must have had some subliminal grasp of these things because they are all present. Or, I just got lucky.

Canon 1DII 1/800s f/10.0 ISO320 300mm
