The Happy Hooker

[64North]

Looks like she has seen better days, and perhaps happier times.

Shot taken at Kilronan pier, Killeany, Aran Islands, Ireland.

Heya, welcome to ThePhotoForum, 64North!
Nice photo to come with as your first submission. Good introduction. And you have been to the Aran Islands. Wow. I've only once tried to see them, but they were all hidden in the fog ... knitted a couple of Aran sweaters though, way back then.

The fenders look brand new, and so do their ropes. So I would assume the Happy Hooker still goes out to sea! Being exposed to salt water as she must be, you can hardly manage to fight corrosion at all, or you'd have to put on a new coat of paint once in two weeks time...

I like the contrast of the blue and the red of the ropes and fenders .

This is too good a pic to go into Snapshots and Bloopers, so I'll move it to the General Gallery. More people will meet you there, too.

Thanks for the welcome!
Yeah my Ireland trip was awesome, can't wait to go back. I put it into Snapshots because it was taken with a Kodak DX6940, figured that is too much of a consumer camera to be playing in the big boys league.

BTW, Deutsche trifft man ja halt ueberall wo es ums photographieren geht.
