Love the blue bouys, the boat is lovely and sharp against a misty background. Nice capture Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Aussie. This was in Nov. when most boats had been taken in in anticipation of winter.

Very nice boat shot. Can I go for a ride?
Mary MacADNski: The barbeque on the back makes me think this would be a good boat to go on a cruise with.

I like your composition and the sand bank at the back.

If you had a boat - it would be laying in waiting for summer smile Soon, very soon. The first oh so little signs of the seasonal change is showing here.
Mary MacADNski: We have had 15 storms so far and there are still 5 official weeks till spring though we still get a few storms into April. The barbecue on the boat looks like summer though.
I love this boat shot. Well done Mary
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Richard.

Very lonesome boat... it looks chilly and deserted. Well composed...Have a great weekend Mary.
( I have just received 3 cds i ordered from Pattie Griffin.. I love the song Mary the most!)
Mary MacADNski: Isn't she just the greatest?! Does one of her cd's have Making Pies or Long Ride Home? They are faves of mine. Good weekend to you too....listening to Patty Griffin.

Nothing in this picture, it seems,is in a hurry! That is enough for me, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: We're going to have a boat full. I'm bringing beer and mussels and David's bringing Guinness, of course. Perhaps you could bring a bit of Thai food.

love that song Mary, very fitting with this fine image. mal
Mary MacADNski: That is my favorite all time version of any song. I had the album from the seventies and still play that song weekly. There've been many versions but this one....pure perfection. Glad you listened and like it.

That's cute Mary, be nice to potter out to the middle of the lake and crack open a beer or two smile How you doing?
Mary MacADNski: Let's do, David. We'll have to have someone else drive though won't we? I'll bring the beer - heck, you live in Guinnes country....

It feels so lonely ... Poetic shot ...
Mary MacADNski: It does. It was the only boat at the wharf.

The little splash of red and blue really make this picture.

Like the Holmes Brothers song...they are new to me
Mary MacADNski: The barbeque makes it for me. I like the holmes bros too and I've discovered them only in the past year or so.
I'd be out taking photos too. smile
Mary MacADNski: I sure would love to be out taking photos.
