Coo, Look What The Tide Washed Up

The setting is an entrance plaza to the Venetian Waterways And Boating Lake. The steps lead down to the manmade canals, which has a cafe/restaurant on an ‘island’ in its centre. Built in 1926-28 as an unemployment relief initiative, it was fully restored in 2019. I have cut away the park which was beyond the steps unseen. I inserted the water and sky that I photographed at Hunstanton, I liked the blue horizon and the cloud stratification. I mirrored that with the horizontal metal strips that were photographed at another entrance to the lake, and montaged them to the bottom of the picture. I placed the coloured marker buoys (Sheringham) in the entrance and purposely magnified their size. I included the boat which is relatively smaller to the buoys and the setting. the boat was on a muddy embankment in Blakeney harbour. Finally, to complete the composition, I included a second set of buoys.
