That photo is not a bowline! Maybe there is one but out of the photo.

BTW. the Utube video posted a few comments back, is NOT good! Appears that it would not be easily removed from dock, since the forces are on the part towards the boat - totally wrong.

When a good knot is done, there will be no tension on line to undo it.
