Nothing better than a spot of late night fishing at a coastal beach in summer. Pt Lonsdale, VIC A thank you to Bidkev for nominating this photo in the Pay It Forward Group. This what Kev had to say. I would like to nominate John Conway’s “Two Mates Fishing” A lot of my favourites are to do with fishing. Nothing settles me more and takes my mind of life’s tribulations than a peaceful day’s fishing. John has captured perfectly, the camaraderie that exists between two mates who have a love of the same pastime. If the sunsets are spectacular, as this one is, then that adds further to one’s enjoyment. This picture simply oozes mateship and peacefulness. Thanks Kev, very much appreciated

This image was created at the Apollo Bay Docks early in 2008, went here for a holiday just as I was getting into Photography. I went down to the docks just as a storm was rolling in and it made for some interesting weather conditions! This pic was created from one raw file. I changed the exposures in Lightroom and then merged 3 images using Photomatix, increased the blue and green saturation levels in Lightroom and added a bit of contrast. This is the result! This is my most viewed image on RedBubble Click here for my other images of Victoria
The North Sea at Whitby. The Herring boats at misty dawn, / To get the details of the boats correct, I’ve used a Victorian photo as the subject. I liked the very hard pen ink lines of the foreground, contrasting with the soft, misty, wet-in-wet background. 90 lb watercolour, medium rough paper. / 12”x8”
Ev`a*nes”cence\, n. The act or state of vanishing away; disappearance; as, the evanescence of vapor, of a dream The Cuillens mountain range of the Isle of Skye in the far north of Scotland. / Taken last winter, in the twilight after sundown. / The small coloured balls floating out in the bay are fishing buoys.

I was seldom able to see an opportunity until it had ceased to be one. Mark Twain (1835 –1910)
For some reason this reminds me of a scene from Moby Dick… minus the whale of course. / / I was actually going Cod fishing with some friends for the first time off the Eastern coast of Newfoundland…. just had to bring the camera of course. Those clouds on the horizon kicked up such a fierce wind and it created some very large swells that relieved me of my lunch lol! I actually did see a whale on this trip, about 100 feet from the boat I was in. 60 foot whale vs. 16 foot boat = some good fun… lol! / Visit my website On The Rock Photography / / / Canon 400D / / / / / /
Another in the Masters series. / This is the centre part of a long panoramic watercolour. By Thomas Bush Hardy, 1895. I’ve moved some of the boats to be closer together, as my version is a small painting, 10×7 inches, on rough Bockingford tinted cream paper, 140lb. I will be painting the full length seascape in the future.
It was blowing a gale while taking these photos, there was lighting strikes to the far right of the picture, but I wasn’ able to capture any. I didn’t think any of these would turn out any good considering the conditions, so it was a nice suprise to come away with some nice shots. not long after this was taken it started to rain and the people fishing and myself made a mad dash for our cars. all in all a fun afternoon.

An abandoned pleasure craft up on blocks at St Marks, Florida … hunting around underneath the hull I found some wonderful art work.

Please View Large Wikipedia © Mousehole, along with Marazion, was until the 16th century one of the principal ports of Mount’s Bay. Before its decline as a major commercial centre, Mousehole also had a number of fairs and markets, including the charter for a market on Tuesdays, with a fair for three days at the festival of St Barnabas, granted to Henry de Tyes in 1292 . Mousehole, like many communities in Mount’s Bay, fell within the authority of the Manor of Alverton; all early charters, fairs etc. associated with Mousehole are associated with this manorial estate. / Mousehole, like Penzance, Newlyn, and Paul, was destroyed in the 1595 raid on Mount’s Bay by Spaniard Carlos de Amésquita, the only surviving building being the ‘Keigwin Arms’, a local pub. Outside the Keigwin Arms (now a private residence) is a plaque with the wording “Squire Jenkyn Keigwin was killed here 23rd July 1595 defending this house against the Spaniards”. Dolly Pentreath, who is often accorded the status of last native speaker of the Cornish language, is often listed as coming from Mousehole. There is in fact a small memorial to her in Mousehole itself, although a larger one exists in the nearby parish of Paul, which is historically the mother church and mother community of Mousehole. / Penwith is believed to be the last part of Cornwall to speak Cornish as a community language. Dolly Pentreath, the last recorded speaker (but arguably not the very last) came from Paul in Penwith. A year following the death of Dolly Pentreath, Barrington received a letter, written in Cornish and accompanied by an English translation, from a fisherman in Mousehole named William Bodinar stating that he knew of five people who could speak Cornish in that village alone. Barrington also speaks of a John Nancarrow from Marazion who was a native speaker and survived into the 1790s. / William Carvosso, the Methodist, was born here.

The historic Mary D Hume sits on the river banks near the mouth of the Rogue River in Gold Beach, Oregon, where the brackish water, tidal movement, swift currents, and Pacific storms take a heavy toll. The vessel was built in 1881 and served as a whaling vessel until 1978 when it came back to its place of birth and was listed with the National Register of Historical places. The Mary D Hume boasts the longest Pacific coastal service of any boat, and recorded the longest whaling voyage on record; six-and-a-half years. She also recorded the largest catch of baleen whale in history after a 29 month voyage. Nikon D700, 20 mm f/2.8D Nikkor Lens / Photomatix HDR, 5 bracketed JPG images ( -.67, -.33, 0 +.33, +.67)
