The fisherman’s hut

By alan frost on December 4, 2014

This hut on a trailer is not the most attractive, in fact from a purely aesthetic point of view some might describe it as plain ugly or just a shed on wheels. However from a photographic perspective I was drawn to the subject. I asked myself what it might be used for and did it ever move from its isolated position on the shingle beach at Weybourne on the North Norfolk coast.

When I took the shot It was a beautiful autumn day, with clear blue skies almost devoid of any interest but for the small cluster of clouds immediately above the hut and a couple of gulls as they flew above the shoreline. For me both the clouds and the gulls make the image. Without them the hut on its own would not be so interesting.
