Monochrome Monday some Commercial fishing boats
Monochrome Monday some Commercial fishing boats
For this weeks post in Monochrome, I am back at the port, focusing this week on some of the commercial fishing boats
Known as the "Scallop Capital of the World," New Bedford ports fleet lands roughly 80% of the nation's sea scallops, with the port generating over $322 million in direct sales, of course not all these are scallop boats, well I think I am no expert, infact know very little about the type of boats and what fishing they do, I should try and learn more bout them, I am kind of shy and seldom talk to people wen I am out on photo walks, but I should try to visit the port during the day and speak to some of the crew of ships and try to educate myself better.
May never happen but it is a goal I am setting myself now as I type this

Like this next one the Atlantic prince, and the fact it has nets, do they use nets to catch scallops, well I now know from a google search yes the do use specialized nets to bring in scallops but I have no idea if its this type of net or boat that dos it so it may catch scallops or other fish

now googhle did tell me the queen of Peacer is a scallopper l, but what caught my eye in this shot was the rust and wear and tear onthe other boat so I went with selective color for this shot to higlight it
