House Boat (+PiPs)

We went for a look around the boat yard at Eastney, Portsmouth this morning to see if there was anything to photograph.

I've no idea whether anyone is actually living onboard this house boat, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was. It's not the most well looked after berth..!!

Check out the PiPs for more untidiness!

It looks as if the houseboat is being held together by scaffold poles. A nice find, Keith. I would love to explore somewhere like this.

Keith Burton ^club has replied to Amelia ^club

I think the hull is basically sound..........but it is in a bit of a mess..!!

Glad you like the photos Amelia............this is around 15 miles from where I live so I'm able to visit now and then. Thanks for dropping in and leaving some comments.

I love places like this Keith. They make great pictures. Some of the houseboats on canals look a bit rough, and then someone pops their head out....so you never know :-)
I like the detail in your PiPs and the main picture is superb.

Keith Burton ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne ^club

I know what you mean............this place can be really good to wander around, but some of the residents of the boats can be a bit off about having their boats photographed, so you have to be careful. Glad you like the photos Rosa and thanks for your nice comments.

When it's renovated, it'll definitely be a little gem. Finds on the shore that show life and transience. Well seen Keith. Beautiful colored maritime details.

They certainly have a good collection of junk with the cross I wonder if it's a floating religious meeting place

Keith Burton ^club has replied to Peter Castell ^club

There's always plenty of junk in a boat yard Peter...........that's one of the reasons I enjoy visiting them. I don't think it's a religious meeting place.........likely quite the opposite :-)

This is captivating, Keith == lots of leading lines that give your eyes -- mine, anyway -- a scenic tour round the photo.

That would be a great way to travel the waterways and see the sights.

Keith Burton ^club has replied to Eunice Perkins ^club

I'm not sure I'd risk travelling anywhere in this houseboat Eunice. Although most are watertight, they're rarely seaworthy!

Beim ersten Eindruck dachte ich gleich an die Arche Noah. Als ich das Bild vergrößerte erkannte ich den Schriftzug auf den Rettungsringen. Vielleicht muss die biblische Geschichte korrigiert werden ;-)
Mir gefallen besonders die PiPs mir den blauen Leinen.
