Visserij
De visserij in Makkum ontwikkelde zich laat ten opzichte van andere havenplaatsen aan de Zuiderzeekust. Voor de aanleg van de Afsluitdijk wordt er vanuit Makkum voornamelijk op het binnenwater, het Makkumermeer tussen Makkum en Workum, gevist. De visserij op de Zuiderzee blijkt in die tijd erg lastig, mede door de lange zandbank voor de kust wordt de toegang belemmerd. Er wordt in die tijd vanuit Makkum gevist op schelpdieren, op de banken voor de Friese kust en in het gebied wat nu de Waddenzee is. De schelpen worden gebruikt als grondstof in de kalkovens. Rond 1900 zijn er slechts enkele vissers die vanuit Makkum op de Zuiderzee vissen, met name met kleine open scheepjes wordt er met behulp van sleepnetten gevist op haring.
In tegenstelling tot veel andere vissersplaatsen gelegen aan het IJsselmeer, krijgt de Makkumer visserij na de aanleg van de Afsluitdijk juist een impuls. Een aantal vissersfamilies uit o.a. Lemmer verhuist naar Makkum. De Makkumer visserij richt zich naast de visserij op het IJsselmeer ook op de kustvisserij en de Waddenzee. De overgebleven Makkumer vissers vissen tegenwoordig veelal met gecombineerde IJsselmeer- en kustvisserij.

fishing
The fishery in Makkum developed late compared to other ports on the Zuiderzee coast. For the construction of the Afsluitdijk, Makkum mainly fishes on the inland water, the Makkumermeer between Makkum and Workum. At that time, fishing on the Zuiderzee turned out to be very difficult, partly due to the long sandbank off the coast, access was impeded. At that time, shellfish were fished from Makkum, on the banks off the Frisian coast and in the area that is now the Wadden Sea. The shells are used as raw material in the lime kilns. Around 1900 there are only a few fishermen who fish from Makkum on the Zuiderzee, especially with small open boats, using trawl nets to fish for herring.
Unlike many other fishing towns located on the IJsselmeer, the Makkumer fishery will receive a boost after the construction of the Afsluitdijk. A number of fishing families from Lemmer, among others, are moving to Makkum. In addition to fishing on the IJsselmeer, the Makkumer fishery also focuses on coastal fisheries and the Wadden Sea. The remaining Makkumer fishermen nowadays mostly fish with combined IJsselmeer and coastal fisheries.
I shot five bracketed images for this shot and chose two to work on , one for the foreground and one for the sky, as you might expect the sky was a difficult image to work on so it is quite well pushed, I have been working on this image most of the day on and off and now I reckon I cannot do any more with it so here it is .
Would love your thoughts on how I could have done this image better.

Fiskebäck is a modern fishing harbor constructed in the 1950s. Fiskebäck is the largest fishing village in Sweden. In the harbor is an ice factory and a netfactory in barn-red, which was designed in the 1960s. Next to the ice factory is a café, which also has program activities and a fishing museum.
There is also a large marina with shipyard and naval stores, and nearby is the Fiskebäck beach.
The Cobb is the famous curved stone harbour wall at Lyme Regis in West Dorset. There has been a harbour here for hundreds of years, and it is still used as a working harbour by numerous fishing boats.
The Grade I-listed structure which curves out south-eastwards into the sea has been of great economic importance to the town, preventing coastal erosion and providing a safe harbour to facilitate trade. The Cobb enabled Lyme to develop as both a major port and a centre of shipbuilding from the 13th century onwards.
The first written mention of the Cobb is in a 1328 document describing it as having been damaged by storms. Originally constructed from oak piles driven into the seabed and infilled with boulders, the Cobb has been destroyed or severely damaged by storms several times. It was swept away in 1377 which led to the destruction of 50 boats and 80 houses.
Until the middle of the eighteenth century the Cobb was cut off from the land at high tide. The onshore wave action replenished the protective shingle banks on the easterly beaches and naturally dredged the sand from the harbour floor. Many attempts were made to join the Cobb to the shore, but these structures were soon washed away, and it was not until 1857 that a more robust connection was finally established.
Much of what we see of the Cobb today was constructed in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries using massive blocks of Portland stone.
Another image from Dungeness. This grab shot came from a productive morning while out with Andy and John.

My DSLR dropped dead on me, so I was relegated to using my iPhone for this shot, which I normally only use for casual snapshots. It took a bit of post processing, but I guess it came out o.k.
Whilst walking around the Sovereign Harbour I met a couple of fishermen who were preparing their nets for the coming night's journey out into the open sea.
This guy was called Paul and he was quite happy for me to observe him at work and take pictures.
He told me that he had been a fisherman for over 50 years and was the second oldest fisherman in the harbour. His working life as a fisherman had been broken for a short period but he had then returned to, presumably, what he knew and loved.
He said their trip the previous night had been thwarted through bad weather conditions and that they were hoping for a good night's catch of Plaice and Sole.
See the previous photo in my photostream for a picture of the boat.
En als je hier bent kan een long exposure natuurlijk niet achterblijven!
On this location, you'll just have to make a long exposure with the poles of the fishingnets, coming out of the water!
The shipyard and slipway in Marken were built in 1885 for Den Haas, a shipbuilder in Monnickendam. Since the yard lay outside the dike, the workspace was placed above the highest water level. Most of the work consisted of repairing and maintaining the Marken fishing fleet. There were two slipways side by side, where the smacks could be cleaned and tarred in pairs.
Only small boats were built here. When fishing declined following the enclosure of the Zuiderzee, the yard received less and less work. This shipyard was built as part of the construction of Marken harbour in the Zuiderzeemuseum.
