Another from Urban Ugly

This is the shot I promised in my last post, taken from a little further up the creek.

Old ladies of the sea

Final Resting Place

Backing up a few paces and turning over my right shoulder from my previous posting, you see these graceful old ladies of the sea, tied up, abandoned and left to decay.

I guess their final act of service is to provide shelter and a home for all the denizens of the creek, and slowly giving up their nutrients and returning to mud. We like a nice bit of recycling :)

I absolutely love this. It looks a bit like a painting. You've captured a beautiful slice of life, and history here. I can picture another time.

:) Thnx everyone for your great feedback

@Kyllimarjaana: welcome, I hope you keep coming back! And your English is fine, I understood you perfectly.

@Kelly - I'm not so strong in the narrative dept. so your words are particularly welcome - I must be getting better ;)
