The Holy Island of Lindisfarne’s traditional sheds, made of upturned fishing boats

Local fishermen on Holy Island apparently considered it a sin to send boats to the junkyard. They instead found a way to transform their old herring boats into perfect little storage sheds for their nets, tools, and other equipment.

Re-purposing at its best..!! Those amazing shed/boats look beautiful against the lovely blue sky. I like the coiled up rope too, and the red lifesaver buoy really draws the eye,

I also like the colourful pebbles in the foreground. Sharp and detailed throughout the whole scene. A superb shot TOZ. 10/10
