boat bones

The sea both serene and deadly. Dealt this day trawler a killing blow a few years ago. The corpse of the boat is slowly decaying and being sucked into the sea, all that is left today is the bleached ribs of the carcass lying in the shallows where the sea threw it.

    I LOVE this it’s gorgeous. It really is like a ribcage or something, makes you feel the general rhysical makeup of still things versus living things is so similar.

    Oh’ what stories this one could tell….. They do look like the rib bones. Seeing the nuts & bolts makes me think it isn’t that old either ??.. A good creation… Thumbs Up. Also thanks for your comments on mine.

    They always remind me of a whales skeleton. This is a lovely capture, and serves to remind that nothing is forever. All the work which went into bending the ribs, the planking and the chinework, lost. Sad, but beautiful in form.
