Sailing Wood
As I have written numerous times already here on my blog, I am fascinated with wooden boats of any kind but especially with Croatian traditional types & my grandfather had a hobby of building the boats himself, introducing me with that skill from my early age... Unfortunately, he died when I was only 3 years old & haven't learnt anything but still I subconsciously found the connection with b'n'w film photography...
The following were made in the old shipyard in Nerezine, Lošinj, Croatia. This wooden boat was huge & could walk easily inside of it. A lot of work still had to be done. I forgot the history of this one but I remember that people were saving it in the last moment fro decay...
Sometimes I really like symmetry so I made a front shot & now I added logos of my photo-craft. It has the look of ying-yang simbol.
This outside surface was so appealing to my eyes, so smooth, so interesting...
The inside really looks like whale's ribs or some gigantic fish.
Here are some more shots from that same shipyard: https://steemit.com/hive-185836/@careassaktart/black-and-white-photography-and-art-wooden-boats-and-film-photography
The following I made in the port of Rijeka, Croatia probably in the same time. It was also a bigger wooden wessel with this interesting looking face...
These shots I took long time ago on Ilford FP4 PLUS 125, I believe even 11 years. I used an old Minolta in that period. I was preparing an exhibition on the topic so I invited my mother to join me on an excursion around the Kvarner bay in search for special examples of the boats. In that time our dog was still alive so he was also with running wildly anywhere he wanted. The best shot I took I'll publish in the next post...

Amazing details. It is a treat to see how the wood bends and live in other form.
& even when it's dead it's kind of still living for years if it's taken good care of...
Hey darling! Long time no see! Thanks for nice wishes & for stopping by & supporting!
