Market Friday at the port

Market Friday at the port

A post for Market Friday hosted by @dswigle, if you haven't followed her yet you should she is one of the kindest and most supportive people here on Hive, a comment from her is like a ray of sunshine on your page.
This is the one tag and challenge that I always make a point of joining, and also look through the posts of others that join the challenge and seeing markets from all around the world.

For this weeks post, Since I haven't bene out taking many well any photos recently I was struggling to think what I could share shots of that fit the Market Friday theme this week, then as I was driving to do an errand yesterday I drove by the port.

And it came to me since the New Bedford port is the biggest commercial fishing port in the United States and provides sea food to markets all around the country.

So it came to me why not do some photos taken on a walk around the port a while back.

Starting with this shot where I often park my car before heading for a walk around the port.

These shots were taken last year when we had more snow than this year as you can see by the piles of it in the car park.

I hope I am not tempting fate by saying this, but this winter we have not had much snow at all, I think the biggest fall we had was perhaps barely an inch and it melted away quickly

Dang, all that rigging looks so confusing. It's like a maze from the vantage point you have there. Now that you have me thinking of fish I guess it is a good thing I am heading out to a lenten fry tonight with my buddy!

What a beautiful sunrise it was, the pictures are looking amazing with the warm hue in the sky. Am sure it got really busy if that is the biggest commercial fishing port in the United States and provides sea food to markets all around the country. That's no small feat.
Thank you for sharing and do enjoy the weekend ahead :}

Beautiful photos! I like the sunrise shots. Depending on its use, halina in our language is to beckon someone or it could also mean something/someone attractive or beautiful :)

I don't believe that you published about the port this week! I just mentioned to someone who said you take great beach shots of the area, and I spouted on about the port and how amazing it was that it was the busiest commercial fishing port that supplied the nation with seafood. Ha! Then, of course, I read this (which you had already published I see) and laughed at the chance that it happened.

The shots are artistically amazing, the light, the lines, and the subject lights up my soul. The reflective nature of the shot with HECKLER is stunning, I am in awe at your capabilities with a camera in your hand. You truly shine on the water.

PS... I have to say, some of the best come out of there! Yummy!

As always, you pull through with another great and unique way of showing off #MarketFriday - and I truly appreciate it! Thank you!

#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world. Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday
