Love the opposing dynamics in this shot.

The dark, heavy sky and the bright colours of the boats standing proud against the darkness.

The two boats moving in opposite directions across the frame.

One boat sail powered - one steam powered

One moving at speed - one stationary.

One boat working and purposeful - the other a leisure boat in no hurry (as it's name suggests)

One heading out to sea - the other back to land.

So much happening in such a small picture - and I think the heavy muted colours of the sky and background help to draw the viewers eye into the centre of the shot where all the (understated) action is happening.

This is a really strong and wonderfully understated shot - Very nice.
