Colour week

The Northern Prince during a warm sunset

This week i will post a colour image, each day, taken from digital and film sources. Although i love shooting black and white images, colour offers a lot of creative possibilities and over the years i've grown to love it more and more.

This image was taken in Thornham Staithe, Norfolk where the Northern Prince was located, aground near a car park. For years, the boat remained in a poor condition but about ten years ago signs of some care and attention started to appear - starting with the boat's name being painted proudly on the hull.

Within three or four years, the boat had gone; repaired, repainted and returned to sail on the sea.
