Atlas - The Halibut Schooner by mamabec

Atlas - The Halibut Schooner

This Halibut Schooner was launched from Seattle, Washington in 1918. It was drug ashore at Winchester Bay, Oregon in 2002. I've wanted to get a shot of it for sometime and today I took my brother to Coos Bay and this was the perfect opportunity to get my photo on the way back home. I think it is a really cool looking boat even thought it's in dry dock.
Great composition

Nice shot love the angle it stands out well against the sky. You say its in dry dock being scrapped I hope she definately looks as if she has seen better days.

@webfoot You know Paul, I think it has become one of those things that provides more interest just as it is. Winchester Bay on the Oregon Coast is really a neat place.

Great idea for a shot! I love the washed out rusty colors against the bright blue sky!
