Day 020 - Working Class

Eliot, ME view map

I made it to my intended destination this morning. We drove by this marina a couple of days ago in the snowstorm and it reminded me that I wanted to capture something in this marina during the winter. I was standing in 3 feet of soft snow, otherwise I would have gotten a bit closer to the dock and would have captured an entirely different composition. This boat was not my first choice, but I kept coming back to it during Post Processing.

Completely handheld, even after I had a discussion with myself earlier about the use of a tripod. I wasn't talking out loud with myself ;-)

There are a lot of boats in this marina, the exotic ones are wrapped up and resting on land. There are a few exotic ones wrapped up and sitting in the water, a few not wrapped up & resting in water, and a few not so exotic ones resting in water. I can guess that this particular boat in the foreground was going out sometime today. If I ride by tomorrow, I can bet that most of the other boats will still have snow on them, unless the marina cleans them off for posterity.
