I Love Black and White Photography

This just really gives me the feeling of being in an archaic time...the vintage surroundings of a place far off in the distance. Somehow it brings me a new hope...possibly hope that was once lost. But seeing the elements makes it feel like nature is striking back. However the gumption with which the subject faces his watery doom reminds me that it's always possible that hope that is lost...only gives us the chance for the return of the hope.
