This barely maintained rusty old bolt stands proud from the weathered timber of a marina, ready to play its part again.

The photograph was made in glorious late afternoon sunlight on the marina at Crowdy Bay , on a beautiful winter day while in the company of a Port Macquarie Panthers Camera Club friend.
THE MAKING of ‘Bolt Upright’:
Fuji S9600: RAW, Macro, Manual settings of f/11 @ 1/200sec, ISO80, Hand held.
