" EMPS #84: In The Forefront.
Ok photographers, grab your cameras and show me a photograph of an object specifically in the FOREFRONT. The purpose of this week's assignment is to make us more aware of not just what's in front of us, but the backgrounds of our photos as well. I want to see some photography that captures the imagination. Any subject will do, it's all up to you, but this week... NO ARCHIVES! Get out in the air, and find your subject! Concentrate on both the FOREFRONT and the background, but make the FOREFRONT the star of the show!
Extra Credit: Share a little about what it was like to take your photo. How did you decide on a subject? How did you decide on the background setting? Help out your fellow photographers by sharing your experience with us."
So here it is, something just taken this morning, before I had a chance to log in and read about today's assignment.
In the foreground are the patience fishermen,waiting for the fishes to bite. They assured me that there's plenty of fishes there, just need to wait a while. I saw 3 fishermen on the bridge over the Api Api river that leads to the open sea. In the background is a small island named Pulau Ubin, and beyond that are the fluffy clouds., which was my main reason why this photograph is taken.
We've having lots of rain nowadays, good thing a girlfriend and I decided to go down to the beach this morning, it started to rain as soon as I reached home in the afternoon.

Hi Jama :)
Neat idea! I love the fishermen in front, but the clouds make it look like you can see forever! Good choice!
Beautiful image! So peaceful, I hope they caught lots of fish!
This is going to sound a little strange, but this photo reminds me strongly of eastern Florida. No, really - when my mom lived near Cape Canaveral (Satellite Beach and later Melbourne), it wasn;t unusual to see people fishing off bridges at the Indian River. Nice shot!
What a neat shot! Perfect for the theme and I love the fluffy clouds in the background. It's great to see the fishermen in the forefront.
