catch of the day

Thank you for your comments.

Wonderful photo!

Memories indeed ......... I grew up down your way. Spent many a 4th of July on the Port Bolivar side of the ferry . Ahh I love that ridiculous ferry ..... lol

 

Where exactly was this taken Donna ?

This was taken at the Texas dike in Texas City. My first visit down there. Just exploring... need to go back. The ferry is really neat. As a child I spent my summers at Cape Cod and the beaches around Boston. The water is a lot colder up there. :~)

That's cool you got a picture of Texas City and not a refinery in sight .... !

 

Galvaston is surely no Cape Cod, but at night ................. they all sound the same ..... (-;

Galveston has its charm . . .

 

Actually I did edit out a few oil derricks. Had to drive through the refineries to get to the dike. I felt like I had left earth and landed on some alien planet with all that weird lighting and those billowing smoke stacks. Thankfully nothing exploded. It does, however, look like it has lots of photographic potential.

 

And the smell ........ don't forget the smell. Nothing smells quite like refined rocket fuel ... !

 

Yes, take advantage of what is around you ..... they look pretty cool lit up at night.

The smell did get rather pungent over a short distance. And I agree, it's probably a spectacular light show at night.

I would be tempted to entitle this "Mood Indigo". A very nice study in blue.

Thank you Michael, I think it's a wonderful title.

Photo is superb, great work.

Very nice composition. I like the simplicity of it and the color works so well.

You turn a common picture into a masterpiece. Regards

The land drives nicely the eye to the fisherman, and I like the reflects off the rod, which we can therefore figure out.
