Always photographically interesting stuff on the quayside, floats and nets...

No matter which country you are in, strangely familiar!

Small floats were usually made of cork, but fishermen in places where cork was not available used other materials, like birch bark in Finland and Russia, as well as the pneumatophores of Sonneratia caseolaris in Southeast Asia. These materials have now largely been replaced by plastic foam.

Glass floats were large glass balls for long oceanic nets, now substituted by hard plastic. They are used not only to keep fishing nets afloat, but also for dropline and longline fishing. Often larger floats have marker flags for easier spotting.

These looked to me like the sweets on a bracelet or necklace, when I was young??? LOL

Thanx for all your words, time, comments and likes. Very much appreciated. M, (*_*)

What caught my eye was the old clinker built dinghy, these are quite rare these days.

Marina is up early making pancakes for her friends. She is trying to figure out how many to make. She can do five minis at a time with her pan.

A papercut, handpainted in my favorite shade of blue.

 

It reminds me of old woodcuts.

Entry to fants contest. Guess it’s me in some strange dystopia where we all float and wear kabuki masks. Also the hairs dyed. I’m not ginger hehe

Like life, we must stay afloat! Like this little boy who braved the water of Pasig River just to collect plastics and asked alms under this Fort Santiago walk bridge just to stay afloat in LIFE. So you brave boy, FLOAT ON!

Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands.

Good news will work its way to all them plans.

We both got fired on exactly the same day.

Well we'll float on, good news is on the way.

 

And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.

And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on.

Alright already, we'll all float on.

No don't you worry. We'll all float on.

Alright, already. We'll all float on.

Alright, don't worry. We'll all float on.

Freshmen year is coming to a close and it's been a helluva year. At times, it felt like everything bad that could happen, did happen (Damn you Murphy). But no matter how dark it got, I just kept pushing towards the light and I've managed to Float On.

Ice-floats at Jökulsárlón, Iceland. Lights and colours made me feel like never before: a bit of fear and a huge respect to nature. Loved this spot, by its unique beauty and energy.

I chose a fishing float as my answer to today's prompt. I thought a fishes eye view would be appropriate or maybe that should have been a worm's eye view!
