Rickety, Rickety Dock/ Watery Wednesday

Warped dock on peninsula jutting into Lake Ontario

I suspect sea gulls may be the only ones safe on this old dock. What do you think?

Rickety dock for sure, the kind for photos not actually using!

Not too many people using that dock. Makes for a great picture though. MB

Well, I'm not sitting on it ;) I'll leave it to the seagulls! Love this image though and I would love to visit it.

Maybe a great way to try the water:-)
The picture is a little bit sad, but beautiful.

Warped dock... You mean like a deranged medic?

Yeah, probably only suitable for seagulls.

There's beauty everywhere! And a watery sight like this reminds me of home and some parts here.

A sight I see often!! You know, someone else posted (I think from Ohio) a few days ago about the influx of Red Admirals this year on the very same day I saw my first ever two!! It must be The Year of the Red Admiral! ~karen

Lake Ontario looks like an ocean to me too, Kaye!

Rose said...

It sure doesn't look safe to me...

George said...

I'm not sure that even the gulls should be using that dock. But it certainly does add 'atmosphere' to this scene.
