19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Drifting
I saw this boat which reminded me of a coffin on a cycling trip in France. The boat was half full of water but appeared to be about to gently float down the Loire river. This tranquil setting made me think about someone who had just died drifting off silently down the river and out of this world. I have a love of small boats and have numerous toy camera photos of other small boats in other countries but none of them give me the mysterious, ambiguous or spiritual feelings that this one does.
