hemmed in

False Creek

hemmed in at the moment, stuck in urban surrounds...to the north and east wildfires are burning across BC...to the south the US border is still closed to non-essential travel...to the west is the Pacific Ocean...one can only dream of open spaces right now

Nikon D7000
Nikkor 18-200mm - 1/1000s f/11.0 at 65.0mm iso160 full exif

Wow, this is really nice and sharp and I like the monotone too. V

Ah yes, you surely are hemmed in, as this busy, bustling and crammed-full-of-detail shot shows

Excellent view, especially in b&w. V.

The image does convey a sense of claustrophobia. V

a very busy port space, a little stuffy with all these boats, bridges and buildings. Hopefully all forest fires will be brought under control and come to an end.

I really appreciate this scene in black and white!
The feeling of freedom curtailed is very powerful here!

Like the complexity of this scene. Nice lighting and tones as well. "V"

Wildfires, floods, pandemic...You feel like you’re being attacked from all sides... V.

Yes its been a tough "hemmed-in" year for most of us. Thank God, we don't have the forest fires like you do out west. Your image doe project a hemmed-in feeling. Well done. I hope your fires and covid will get under control soon.

I know the feeling. I have never wished for Niagara Falls, ON so much. The framing and tones do give a feeling of being trapped. V

Sometimes the only way out from cramped living is through dreams.

Even those with boats look hemmed in :( Try Alberta - lots of space if you don't mind locusts :)

The photo illustrates your point perfectly. V

Choices are limited these days- that's for sure. Interesting though to see us all making the best of the photo ops we have at hand.

A lot to take in, and it does give the feeling of being hemmed in. I hope you're able to break free of it soon.

Single, but well paired with water-kin...V
