Rusty and crusty

Rusty and crusty

When I started this post I wasn't thinking about it being a Thoughtful Daily Post a tag hosted by @wesphilbin but when I started waffling away which you will see below I though perhaps that's what it is a #thoughtfuldailypost

When I am out and about on my walks, and looking for things to take photos of, of course its easy to spot cool sunrises or sunsets, pretty flowers, beach scenes etc, but I also like to look for things that others may not perhaps see the beauty in.
In this post I was taking a walk around the State Pier and taking shots of the fishing fleet in the early morning light, but as the light came out I noticed some of the rusty and perhaps crusty details on some of the boats which lead to these shots and post

Now I think its very important, especially these days with all the craziness going on all around the world, to try and stay positive, and try to be always looking on the bright side of life ( yes another reference to Monty Python and a skit I watched many times), there is beauty and things of interest all around us, if we just slow down, open our eyes and perhaps our mind so that we can see them.

For me, when I am feeling things getting to me, a nice walk helps to relax and put things into perspective, and if things are getting to me a bit more then I often take a stroll, looking for things that catch my eye that I may have missed on other walks in the same place, and i kind of find that after I do that and find even just one thing, my mind is clearer and I am in a better place.

Now thats what works for me, everyone is different, and for you it may be Music, reading a book, doing craft or one of a thousand or more other things, but the general thought is the same

When things are getting to you and perhaps your only seeing dark in the world, stop, take a depe breath and do something that relaxes or inspires you

OK this has now I guess become a Thoughtful daily post, so I will add that tag, but now lets get back to some more rusty and crusty detail by the docks.

Now I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and you may see these shots and the rust and thing, thats a bit boring, and thats fine I accept that we all see things differently, but for me its something that has always ads long as I remember caught my eye

Of course the fishing boats and docks are a great place to find lots of rust, the salty sea water is great for making everything rust

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, that's right, and I also like such rusty things. On these white painted ships the rust looks great, in the right light it looks even almost golden.

I'm working today, but tomorrow morning I want to make a photo trip around the lake, even before I go home. This will help me to relax and recharge my batteries for a couple of days. That's my way to forget the dark in the world and around me for a while.


!BEER and !WINE - both make a nice dinner with !PIZZA :)

Thanks
Hope you get a good trip around the lake
I see in the news there planning a lockdown there again sorry to hear that

!invest_vote

You're welcome, JJ 😀

This morning was dense fog and I hope for the same tomorrow. Would love to make some minimalist photos without having to think minimalist 🤣

Right, from Monday on we will be in lockdown. I don't mind, our life will not change much. We don't go out in bars or shopping that much anyway. I still can go for walks and little photo trips and I am sure that the places will not be so crowded anymore for the next weeks 😉

Wish you a great weekend, my friend 🌞


!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

I still remember that morning last year when the lake was very calm at sunrise and I haven't heard anything but the awakening birds ... beautiful 😀


!PIZZA and !BEER - sounds like a nice dinner :)

There is something alluring about the rust. I have always liked the slightly abandoned look on some pieces and in actuality, love old rusty pieces, or how they photograph.

Your pieces on the dock are wonderful and show their use and how full of life, with the rust. :) I remember I first really became enamored with it on TSU (the real one) and their rust community.

Great post and I love your thoughtful moments. I also walk it off - it really does clear one's head. Have a great day!

Ohh yeah I remember that community now that you mention it

It wasn't around too long, but, I loved it!

Neat set of pics. Oh the stories this rust could tell of all the adventures!

Walking and thinking goes very well together and I for one find it a great way to work through any worries or what to do things. But then like to meditate as well so going into another space works for me and even better when I finish walking I can sit on the sand still my mind listening to the surf rolling in.
Your rusty hook and chain photos represent a strength that we all need right now in the world. Regards @tattootday.

Meditation is something I know works so well for so many people but it’s a thing I can never do perhaps I am too hyper

Thanks for your visit

Looking through the lens at life as it is, rust is a major factor if we really think about how much is being worn away, little by little.

We are able to remove the rust covering with paint, but the cancer still eats below the surface as in life.

Watching items in good use, slowly decaying before ones eyes these photographs resemble much, good food for thought not only the subject JJ.
