"…lying, robed in snowy white
that loosely flew to left and right—
the leaves upon her falling light—
thro' the noises of the night
she floated down to camelot:
and as the boat-head wound along
the willowy hills and fields among,
they heard her singing her last song,
the lady of shalott.
heard a carol, mournful, holy,
chanted loudly, chanted lowly,
till her blood was frozen slowly,
and her eyes were darken'd wholly,
turn'd to tower'd camelot;
for ere she reach'd upon the tide
the first house by the water-side,
singing in her song she died,
the lady of shalott."
…the harsh climate of the region was just too much for that poor cursed weaving lady from the mellow island of shalott! and, if you look closely, you can still see that looong delicate veil of hers that she desperately tried to catch fish in on that last part of her journey to kastorian camelot. well, at least she's not ALL alone there, at the bottom of her boat but escorted by a reverent cortège of three ducks and a procession of ill-mannered gulls, inappropriately screeching "oh, when the saints…"
; ))
don't mind me, alexander! i had so much fun imagining a beautiful damsel's corpse at the bottom of the boat… a very atmospherical and poetic image! both "the wild swans at coole" and "ophelia" come to mind, too, when gazing at the boat
of the lady of shalott! ; )) greetings, sabine.

Sit back, contemplate and dream. Alexander, a wonderful Photo.This old, lonely fishing boat makes a very good contrast. The light and dark of the water and in the background the landscape of the beautiful scenery.
Best wishes
