Hunting for a peacock tail
A river bus is passing by and breaks water in equal dispersing segments which reflect well-ordered yellow spots of a house, blue spots of the sky and black stripes of the windows of the same house. The picture is completed with red splashes of big boards reflected in water.

5.The small ship is approaching very fast; the peacock tail of its trace is changing every moment. It seems that each of these moments is worth of admiration and I’d like to push the release button of the camera without interruption. I get all worked-up in shooting. However “patronage” of camera is limited only to thirty six shots, so I have to restrain myself, otherwise the film will have been over when the river bus disappears and the “peacock tail” smoothes down, and I won’t have enough time to change the film and will regret about this lost shot for a long time.
