That's pretty cool, Craig. It's a little surreal to see anchors yet no body of water is visible. Makes you wonder what's over the horizon.

Yo Craig,

Now that's an interesting " exhibit ". I bet there's a fascinating local story behind this. Did you happen to get any shots of this pile in color? Great stuff.

Take care,

Tom

Morning Richard,

Thanks very much, there were anchors like this everywhere we went in Nova Scotia, I guess for all the Sea Duties.

Morning Tom,

I was striking in it's natural setting. As I had written above to Richard, these were everywhere. I think they probably fit into the Lobster/ Crab industry.

Maybe someone from that part of the Country would know?

Here's a color shot for you!!!

Hi Craig

Jercho Rd....I'll be darn. When I looked at this photo on your site I didn't even see the sign that said Jercho Rd I was so wrapped up in the mess of anchors. Reminds me of the Barrel of Monkeys game we played with.

Richard is right.....a pile of anchors and no water in the photo. Makes one wonder.

Again...great work Craig

Morning Mary,

Thanks very much, it was just of the little harbor and ramp, so I am sure it was just a storage/holding area for them.

This is a case, Craig, where I favor the color version. The dynamics of that pile, I think, come through better when all the rust is evident. However, I've been known to eat rust for breakfast and that may have something to do with my proclivities. Good picture, regardless.

Take care,

Tom

Both images are very nice but like Tom, the colored one appeals to my insatiable appetite for rusty old stuff.
