At the Helm

Stopped by the Eastham side of Town Cove today for a photo shoot. This was my favorite, because I have always wanted a small boat and a few lobster pots. Someday...
It all came together today. I like how all the color is at the front, and then fades into the glue-grey of the water. Nicely composed.

@aj1268 Thank you, Paula. I kind of found my mojo today. It's been missing for about a week, but then I remembered why I started this project... @lorihiro I could eat lobster every day! That's why I want my own trap.

That's a great photo! I really love the composition and your story. If we ever go out to eat together you can have my lobster:-)

great catch - please excuse the pun - we are in the midst of getting our 15' run about boat fixed and this did whet the appetite

Great photo Laurie. And what a fun dream to have too. You should get a lobster boat now....you've got some much free time you need a new hobby. Maybe some day!

if you start catching your own.............they'd taste better than the already do
...........nice dream

Awesome composition Laurie. I'm another that doesn't like lobster.

I share the same wish!
I love seafood so much
and I love lobster
I can eat seafood everyday...I prefer it to chicken/beef
I want a shrimp boat!

What a cool shot, once you get the boat and the lobster pots and the lobster, give me a call.

I like the colors in this shot. Two shades of red, cool!

glad you have your mojo back dear Laurie! Can't say I would like a lobster pot, but I do love boats and the sea so I'll have the boat thanks!

Big lobster fan here! I love the red in this pic!

Great shot! We used to keep Sorcerer's Apprentice, our 23' O'Day sailboat (that now belongs to my brother-in-law) in Town Cove! It was such a pretty spot, but that cut at Nauset was just too dangerous to deal with on all but the flattest of days. We only made it out to open water three or four times over the four summers we were there.

The boat, the sea, the lobster ... all fine with me. Very cool pic, hope your dream comes true, I'll help you haul the traps in ... ;-)
