Eight barrels, Yarmouth Bar, Nova Scotia
Spending a day wandering around Yarmouth Bar in the fall of 1990 yielded a number of interesting photos, some with unusual elements. Here eight barrels were sitting on a wharf beside this shed... a common sight back then, where a more recent scene might have blue or black polypropylene barrels. I can understand the coffee mug hanging on a convenient nail, but the string mop left on the roof seemed a bit odd. There's a large nail (almost a spike), used to prevent the mop from sliding off the roof. The nail isn't driven through the mop head itself, just serving as a prop against which the mop could be placed.
Taken with a Pentax 6x7, SMC Pentax 55mm f/4.0 lens, Fuji Reala 120 Film. This was copied using a Nikon D3500 camera, 55mm f/3.5 Micro Nikkor lens fitted with a Nikon 4T closeup lens, with a Soligor 1.6x achromatic closeup lens on the 4T. Lighting was provided by a 5000K LED bulb in a desk lamp.
