I love the light, the reflections, and the composition of this. Beautiful shot.

Cheers, Marilyn

I'm glad you like it. I wasn't sure if anyone would be interested in this shot but the light was so good it even made these moorings look nice...Anita

Thanks Paul, I don't think these type of moorings have changed in centuries. They are basic and very practical and have stood the test of time. We still enjoy our trips to the coast. I suppose it's because our ancestors came in on this coastline many moons ago. we never went to Butlins either! The Filey Butlins is long gone, it's a new housing estate now...Anita

A.SKINNER on February 23, 2008

There are still few Butlins on the go. They are not my cup of tea really. More the great outdoors for us. We love the peace and solitude of the Scottish regions...Anita

What a life! just the way we like it, with all the mod cons. We keep on saying that we will get a mobile home. We used to have a caravan when the children were small. Maybe one day soon. :) Anita

I'm soooooooo old that I can remember when "mobile homes" were actually mobile--that is they could be towed! Cheers, Marilyn

Hi Mariln, mobile homes (static caravans) are fantastic these days and can cost a fortune, depending on your needs. We often stay in one When we visit Scotland. It's nice to be able to come and go as you please. What we really want is a Motor Home. We have hankered after one for a while as we love touring around...Anita

A close shave, Paul. Yes they do have their drawbacks. There are pluses and minuses to everything. We used to go camping but it's getting too much like hard work, although we love being in a tent and experiencing that back to nature feel...Anita

Speaking of camping and bears ... My parents, one-time finace, and I were camping in Grand Teton National Park, south of Yellowstone. My father and fiance were in a tent, my mother and I in a car-top sleeper much like a miniature covered wagon: the canvas top pulled up to make sleeping space.

During the night my mother and I were awakened by a great shaking motion. Was a bear shaking the car? How could it shake it that fast? My mother speculated about an earthquake, but with all the disdain of a young adult daughter, I said, "Oh, mother, I hardly think so!"

We forgot about it in the morning until we heard people talking in the camp restrooms. Then we turned on the car radio. Yes, the Yellowstone Earthquake! (My father, too, had awakened, and that fiance slept right through it.) But it was no bear, so we had no trouble with breakfast.

You would have to be a little crazy to be in a tent in bear country. lucky we only have the odd crazed badger!..Anita

Anita, I just read your first answer. I often feel same as you did. If I see there is somebody, who feels like me, it makes me happy. By the way, I like this Photo! Greetings from northern GFermany, Jörg

Often the strangest object becomes beautiful if the light is right, it enhances the colours and texture. I appreciate your comments..Anita
