The thing I love best next to old deserted cabins are……old
deserted boats!! And, on the Homer Spit,
there is a boat junkyard. There were so
many cool images I was lucky enough to capture, it was hard to decide what to
share. Here are my favorites –
Meet the Donna Rae! I
loved the worn blue color of her hull.
Add a little rust, some portholes, the pilot cabin and you have a great
boat image!
This little boat has definitely seen her better days, and her
colors were worn. I really liked the
vibrant colors of the buoys behind her.
I’m not sure how such colorful things ended up in the yard, as they
looked fairly new……at least when compared to the boats!!
I thought this image was cool from a couple of different
viewpoints. I love the boat against the
mountains, of course, but then there’s this old bus off to the side. I actually didn’t notice it when I took the
shot, and was pleasantly surprised when I saw it when I processed the image!
What would old boats in a fishing town be without old
fishing floats nearby? I loved the worn,
peeling and yet colorful look to these!
And, in case you are wondering, fishing floats are used to mark areas in
deeper water where a fisherman could have crab pots, fishing nets, or even
hooks just hanging down. Even tho I
don’t fish, I enjoy them for their character and color!
Enjoy!!
