Pulau Ubin - life's not all that easy

This photo somehow strains of hardship, toil, and wear. The looming clouds add to that feel. Comments welcome.

Actually i feel is more of a run down environment than hardship, unless there is someone actually doing something.
But overall the image is quite dynamic due to the cloud and the color process.

Thanks for your comments, rickygck. Much appreciated. While it is the environment that is run-down, I was hoping that it could hint at the occupant of that environment, even though he is not there, and maybe point to some of the lesser comforts of being a fisherman in modern Singapore.

But you're probably right, the message is not that clear. Thanks again.
