Rust Bucket

Taffy has just told me that my Backlit Feather is on the TT. Thanks so much everyone for putting it there.

We have had a lovely day today. Cinema and then out for lunch. We saw Finding Your Feet, a fabulous movie, also recommended by Pat @happypat and Julia @julzmaioro well worth going to see.

I was standing on the breakwater when I spotted this rust bucket boat. It is always a surprise to see boats with a bit of character, because most of the boats in our area have prices attached to them that would make your eyes water.

I didn't notice the chap standing on the bowsprit until after I had taken this photo. There is also another chap inside the boat.

I think they must be here on holiday because I haven't seen this boat before. It needs a lick of paint but I do think it looks interesting.

My mum and sister saw that movie a few days ago and said it was very good. So many different shades of blue in your image, very nice. Congratulations on the TT.

[Lynda McG]

[Valerie Chesney]

What a capture, needs a lick of paint for sure, good for a fabulous photo.

It looks as if it just needs a bit of tlc. I love all the blues.

Great shot

Not a ship that would inspire confidence of a safe journey.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Ooh dear - a little TLC would not come amiss !! Such a lovely blue scene !

[Dione Giorgio]

I like this boat, too. It does show a lot of character with the rusty keel. Most of them are made of materials that don't rust so finding this is a prize in itself.

[Sue]

I like all the different shades of blue and white in this shot. The rusty bits of boat just add to the interest

[Lou Ann]

A really beautiful seascape!

She can use some painting. Great view and shot.

[Marnie]

Poor old girl, she does look neglected.

[Taffy]

Well spotted -- cool to see the wear and tear the ocean caused for this boat. And the people on it give it such a great feel of a working vessel. And congrats again on TT! Such a nice addition to the weekend!

[Gayle]

This boat definitely has character! Terrific capture! Congratulations on the TT! :-)

[Taisha]

Great photo. Great vessel.

[Rachel]

Well done on TT! This boat looks in dire need of TLC.

[Babs]

@nicolecampbell @julzmaioro Thanks. I really enjoyed the movie. Like Julia and Pat @happypat I could see it again too.

[Pat Knowles]

Tall & proud this old boat has had some work, she still looks good though! Glad you loved the film, I think us older girls appreciate the story! I might go again tomorrow as a friend wants to see it so I'm willing!
