Lobster boats at New London Bay
But first, views of the bay's mouth and the mystery ruins on the opposite shore. No amount of googling by me has come up with even a whiff of the history of these pylons/logs deeply anchored in the sand bar.
From a distance I thought this bird might be a Bald Eagle.
No, a seagull.
Now follows the movement of the boats entering and leaving between 12.32 pm and 12.37 pm. So much action.
The narrow entrance and speed of the boats set up amazing wave action that rippled along the shoreline endlessly. Amazing to watch.
A few minutes later, I spotted what I thought must be a cruise liner on the far horizon. I zoomed in and no, just another lobster boat who's fishing ground was so much further out than I expected.
Four minutes later.
And four minutes later.
Mobile phones are never far away in the workplace, today.
Comtemplation at morning's end.
Interesting angle.
Off for a second load of pots.
With the magical sky above, this was an incredibly beautiful hour spent on the shoreline.
I would love to read your comment.
Wow Helen, your photos are absolutely gorgeous! The skies, the clouds, the water, the boats and the views. Thank you so much for sharing this lovely and enchanting journey!
ReplyDeleteLove these! Fantastic. The pylons are a mystery. At first I thought they were the bones of a ruined wooden ship. It can't be a dock. Perhaps some sort of breakwater? Most mysterious, says I.
ReplyDeleteThat area is amazing place to watch the boats. So close to shore, it feels like you can reach out and touch them. Gorgeous!
