Boat naming began thousands of years ago, probably seeking protection from a god or a saint. Today many boats are named for family members; some express hopes or aspirations. I used a solarization filter to give this boat a vintage nostalgic look.

Boats–Moss Landing Harbor 6
Interesting light as the sun burned away the fog. This light lasted only a few minutes before the fog was gone and the light was harsh and flat.

Boats–Morro Bay
Harsh overhead light doesn’t usually lend itself to interesting photographs, but I liked the drama of Morro Rock in the background. Taken with a wide angle lens, October, 2010.

Boats–Los Osos
A quiet morning south of Morro Bay in a small community, Los Osos. The bay was very still at sunrise. This was three bracketed exposures blended together. October, 2010.

Boats–Out Of Water 4
Another boat used as decoration by a Moss Landing restaurant. I liked the juxtaposition of the Alyssum flowers and the fishing net.
