Late Day At The Marina

The sun was coming in and out of clouds before preparing to set for the day.

The light at the marina made me happy

Little Yellow Fellow

This wee boat and an attached friend was out there on his own, bobbing along on the waves.

Autumn Reflections and Shadows at the Marina

A few days following the Halloween snow storm it was an absurdly warm November day. The marina was busy with folks enjoying their boats before winterizing and dry docking them until spring.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS

SHADOW SHOTS

On The Hull

My neighbor's son-in-law dumped parked his eyesore jet ski in the corner of the driveway just touching our property line.

I'm really sick of appreciating being able to see it all the time.

At least it offers some cool reflections of the shrub.

They're Gonna Need A Bigger Boat ...

... if they expect to intimidate a shark.

Busy Blue Boat

It was hard not to notice this boat at the marina ...

Winter Kayak

I don't know what possessed the Parks People to plop a kayak down in the middle of a park surrounded by snow.

Yet they did ...

RUBY TUESDAY

the snow has all melted now

The Boats Go Home For The Winter

The marina is starting to look empty as people move their boats to wherever it is boats go for the winter - Florida?

This leaves room for reflections from the dock ...

Grace On The Water

She may not be as big as the boats around her but I like Grace. She has style.

I love the dark brick and all the detail around the windows.

Ruby Tuesday: A Boat Is A Boat To Me

I took this last November. It was a beautiful, Indian summer day and I took a walk along the boardwalk in Keansburg, NJ.

One of the fishermen said it was a trawler. I looked up trawlers and it seemed like every type of boat on the seas was a trawler unless it was a canoe or an ocean liner.

Nautical I'm not.

It's red. The sky and bay are beautifully blue. And the wonderful Verrazano Narrows Bridge (the bridge of my beloved Motherland) is in the background.

Good enough for me.



Happy trawls ...

Mid Week Blues: The Little Boat At The Marina

Sunday was a bright sunny day with temperatures in the 40s. The weather reports all said this entire week was going to be cold and rainy and windy and snowy (and lions and tigers and bears) Oh My! - so I went over to the marina to take some photos of the gulls.

This little boat entered the marina. It was making a terrible putt-putt sound as it backed into the dock. I thought it was odd that the gulls all swooped over and around the boat but then immediately moved on.

I assumed it was a fishing boat.

I took a few shots of it. I saw the pilot (captain?) of the boat standing in the window and I was trying to capture his silhouette with the pilings showing through the windows.

The sun glare was impossible and so I shot and shot hoping something would look good when I uploaded.



I never realized it was a Homeland Security boat until I saw the photos.

So, am I on a watch list now?

I got a few great gull shots, I'll share them on Saturday for Camera Critters.
