Net drying posts and other cove fragments

 


We never tire of the lines and layers of the net drying poles on the cove headland. These posts are likely to be one of a very very few such installations in northern Scotland. I would like to do a series of watercolour painting of the posts. The image above and the first one below tend to give a sense of the size of the space occupied by the posts; whereas in the other photos I have stepped the focus inwards to capture detail of one of the many pulleys and ropes.




The following images simply celebrate rust and small fragments near the posts.




Though the image below makes one wonder about the size off the anchor buried in the field if that whale tail is any indication of size.

The light and weather on our morning walks always offers us something new even if we have seen the same objects many times.
