Description
Hope you are all well friends.
Its a while since I've posted. This summer has been hectic. Drove all round France with the family and the Oz in-laws which a great deal of fun, from Mirabelles and Calvados in the north to Cathars in the south via the world's maddest round-about (Arc de Triomphe de l'�toile) and the capital of food (Lyon). Not forgetting Roquefort -oh how cheap it is there (the cheese that is)!
I'll try and catch up as best I can, but forgive me if its a slow process.
This little pickie was taken at Dungeness the other week.

Does the name Dungeness suggest this was once a crabbing boat?? Great find!
a very clear photo Martin! a sad ending to what was once a proud vessel. I hope that MollyRose was treated better than the boat that was named after her!!! not often that I get to comment right after my son!
A marvellous example of lapstraking! Too bad it could not be maintained. The prop still looks perfect and I'm surprised it is still there on an apparent derelict; that prop would likely be worth $500 or more. Oh, it's not often I get to comment right after the two Danas!
What a lovely boat this was! This superb photo captures something of the desolation that is often felt there.
Wonderful capture! We have a Dungeness here as well (Washington State, USA), which is famous for crabs.
Why didn't you say so, Martin? I could have offered you a drink in Paris! :) I love that boat! Poor MollyRose, set ashore.
This is a super shot Martin, I love it.
Fantastic capture!
A very cool capture of this boat nice job on it.
Excellent composition and POV on this wonderful capture! Bet there is a few stories behind this old boat. :)
Superb image! Excellent shot! :)
Most perfect capture of beauty my friend. :))))) The POV is amazing. :)))))) I love boats like this one. :))))) I think this beauty has alot of character. :)))) Most excellent capture. :)))) Thank you for sharing all of the beauty you see. :)))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :)))) I am most happy to hear that you and your family had such an amazing time this summer. :)))) Nothing like family time. :)))) No worries on getting caught up my friend. :))
a same to let a beautiful boat like this fall apart. welcome back
Great image.
I love this shot!
That's a nicely aged beauty... I hope you have enjoyed your stay in France, Martin!
Great subject, expertly handled. As for the Roquefort, get yourself to the cheese shop in Hartington, Derbyshire and get some Bertelin Blue (or order some online...). If you like soft blue cheese I think you will like this; it blew my socks off!
Beautifully captured!
