High and Dry at Low Tide. HFF!

High and Dry at Low Tide.  HFF!
Low tide at Porlock Weir with the light on Exmoor in the background. The boats are left high and dry, stuck until the tide comes in.
I have added 'High and Dry' by Radiohead as the link for Sight and Sound

The second link is 'Stuck' by Norah Jones

Well stranded..for a while! Love this scene...
HFF Carol. Have a super weekend. Fires still burning here. Some rain in parts, but not enough to extinguish some of these mega blazes. Sadly, Australia has become the poster child for climate change and its consequences if unheeded.
5 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Diana Australis club
Thank you very much Diana. It seems strange to be wishing you heavy rain, but if it helps to extinguish the fires.. Unfortunately I think you are right. Australia's plight has highlighted the need for change worldwide although the warnings have gone unheeded in the past. I just hope the enthusiasm to put measures in place does not die with the flames! Stay safe. Best wishes

Wonderful low tide These tidal coasts are ideal for catching seafood. I remember doing it with my friends when I was a child and with the money from its sale we could go to the cinema. Today is prohibited. Have a nice Sunday Carol.

NICE shot! I find these high and low tide moorings so interesting! This picture is super for showing how to properly prepare a moored boat to handle the stress of a low tide.

I also wanted to say thank you so much for your thoughtful, warm, and interested comments about my pictures and writing. I appreciate your visits so much because you really like my offerings and enjoy your visits so much....this is exactly what hope for and so you make my day when you have a nice time looking at my latest show! *big hugs* You're wonderful.

Thank you very much Janet. Really appreciated. The inner harbour was full of smaller boats so there was plenty to enjoy.

You are more than welcome Janet. I do enjoy your photos and the notes you add show how much joy you have in t he places and things you see. It is really nice that it is like reading a diary where every day is filled with adventures and thoughts. I have a diary each year but rarely put anything in it, which is sad. I am full of good intentions but I probably have too much English 'reserve' to feel comfortable sharing my feelings and thoughts with a blank page!
Enjoy your day. Best wishes Carol
