The United States Lightship LV-87/WAL-512 (Ambrose) is a riveted steel lightship built in 1907 and served at the Ambrose Channel lightship station from December 1, 1908,until 1932,and in other posts until her decommissioning in 1966.It is one of a small number of preserved American lightships, and now serves as a museum ship at the South Street Seaport Museum in southern Manhattan, New York City.
In 1921,the first radio beacon in the United States was installed in the ship's radio shack.This addition greatly assisted ships navigating the congested Ambrose Channel in dense fog. LV-87 would also be the last steam-powered vessel to hold the Ambrose Channel post.
After the end of her Ambrose Channel assignment in 1932, LV-87 underwent a major refit, most significantly switching from steam propulsion to a direct drive Winton Diesel engine,as well as the removal of her anchor burton on her bow and a reorganization of her deck structures.Afterward,the ship was assigned to various posts which included being used as an examination vessel during World War II.Although her final post was at the Scotland Station she is commonly known by the name of her most famous station,Ambrose.
LV-87 was decommissioned on March 4,1966,from the Coast Guard after 59 years of service. In 1968 she was given to the South Street Seaport Museum in Lower Manhattan.Currently she is moored at Pier 16 on the East River and is used as a floating exhibit.In April 1989,the lightship was declared a National Historic Landmark-Wikipedia

Located on the Ohio River in New Richmond, Ohio. Looking a bit rough for my taste. Campbell County, Kentucky in background.
Me and my leaves. With the thaw of the ponds, rivers and streams and the wind we have had it is stirring up the fall leaves.

Don't you just love these Mini Easter Eggs, I can't help myself when it comes to stop the eating,.... They are so morish
A pied-billed grebe momentarily floating along Pond 5 before before diving again in search of good eats.
I'm suspended, where night and day are skimming, and there're no human breaths, deafened by voices from a faraway world that no longer exists.

Early morning on a small floating market in Samut Songkhram province of Thailand. The first sunlight reaches above the trees of the surrounding plantations and makes for great light to shoot.
Traveling with a camera i could not easily buy anything from her as a small gesture of thanks, but she was happy with (plenty) of snacks that i bought from her friends :)

Floating Lake Sørvágsvatn is the largest lake in the Faroe Islands. It is situated on the island of Vágar
Faroe Islands floating Lake also known as Lake Leitisvatn seen from the cliff Trælanípa. The scale is enormous and the drop is so scary after a few shots is enough as started to feel giddy from the height and decided to go and photography elsewhere.
A Green Heron fishing from a green carpet of tiny duckweed, which is the tiniest of all flowering plants that float on or just beneath the surface of still or slow-moving bodies of fresh water and wetlands. This variety is so tiny it looks like floating grains in the water!
Among the benefits it provides is a food source for waterfowl and marsh birds, and also supports insects that fish eat.
