On Dry Land

For my get pushed challenge from Anne @365anne - ' So my challenge to you this week is to find something that is out of context and shoot it in any way that you wish.'

This boat is genuinely in a field down the road from us. We live at least 90 minutes from the ocean and there are no dam anywhere nearby that would be large enough to sail a yacht of this size on.
@365anne another out of context picture and no Photoshop involvement with this one!

Well you certainly met this challenge!!

You could say this yacht will not be sailing in these fields! One sees these around and they generally are waiting home build - for years!

@maggiemae Maggie this one has been in the same field ever since we moved here thirteen years ago and I have never seen anyone doing anything to it.

Definitely met the challenge with this great shot...love the background mountains

Maybe they are waiting for Noah's flood

Not much sailing happening here :)

Great shot for your challenge!

Do you suppose that was once someone's dream? A good find to fulfill the assignment!

things like this always make me do a double take. i pass by a house during bus rides on weekend with a large boat on its very meagre front lawn. and it's too big to be hauled every time to the lake which is near but the streets are too narrow to haul the thing around. great response to your push. aces!

Gives a whole new meaning to 'beached'. Love it.

Terrific shot for your challenge.
August 25th, 2017  
This works for the theme of your challenge
August 25th, 2017  
That definitely meets the challenge. Well spotted.
August 25th, 2017  
Great find

Beautiful setting and lovely shot xx

Such a shame, it must have been a really good boat in its time. We live near the sea and also latge rivers and the numbervof "wrecks" left all over the place in the water amazes me.

Wow, that lake is really dry! LOL! Great find!

@gooner46 Chris I don't think this one has ever seen water other than when it rains. I believe it is still in the process of being built!
August 27th, 2017  
Well, that sure looks like a fish out of water! An excellent response to your challenge!
