Comfort and Corrosion

Comfort and Corrosion
Captured at Portpatrick

I thought the bench was a bit quirky and liked the colours of the rusty anchor
I have added a song from Elvis Costello and Rusty, - the Resurrection of Rust, called 'I’m Ahead If I Can Quit While I’m Behind'

Thank you very much Jocelyne. It was a shame the weather was a bit dull as the colours seemed a bit flat in this light.

I like the unusual bench Carol and rust always makes a good picture, just like ruins, it seems to hit the spot ;-)
HBM and hope you have a good new week.

Ecobird club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thank you very much Rosa. It had been a lovely day but when we got here it was a bit dull so did nothing for the colours sadly, - but at least they complement the rusty anchor!

HBM and have a good week

Ich mag die farbigen Steine in der Rückenlehne. Unglaublich, wie schnell ein Anker wegrostet. Aber auf der anderen Seite ist ja noch einer.
HBM und einen guten Start in die Woche, Carol!

In fact, the salty water attacks everything ... And on the left side it looks like a bunker from the war? HBM Carol.
20 months ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Christa1004 club
You are right Christa, but I love the colours of rust. On the left what you can see is acrually a sea wall with a lighthouse on top of it.

Belated HBM wishes. Have a great day

HBM - enjoy the day. Herb

Ecobird club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Yes - I am not sure if it was any better on the other side Herb. Could not risk a shot from that side without a definite risk of taking an impromptu swim!!

Enjoy your day

Portpatrick looks to be big on anchors and elegant benches, interesting to see the Ukrainian flag has replaced the Saltire flag that usually flies from that pole, Nice captrure
HBM and a good week

A great bench combination, designed with imagination and skill.
The stones on the bench match the color of the peeling rusty anchor.

That anchor is outstanding Carol, the corrosion is magnificent! The bench is very grand and solid looking, which is just as well in such an exposed position.

Enjoy your day, Doug

An intriguing scene very well photographed, Carol. Excellent composition. A very well matched musical link for 'Sight and Sound'. New music to me and liking what I hear. Going to check this out some more :-)
