A stack of bright yellow lobster cages stacked on a dock reflect in the sometimes calm waters of the Maine harbor.
This little boat has seen the last of its lobstering days as it sits in the front yard of a riverside house. It can be a melancholic picture reflecting on better days past, or it can also be a nice reminder of a beautiful era of little wooden boats.
Lobster pots piled up next to a wall at Kilmore Quay harbour in Co. Wexford. I don't think they've been anywhere for a while as there are clumps of lichen growing on the bottom ones. Happy Wall Wednesday.
In the large bay area around Bar Harbor the numerous islands and inlets provide some degree of protection from the full fury of the North Atlantic Ocean and numerous small and some moderately larger boats go along the coast setting lobster traps. Back in the 19th century huge large lobsters were still common but now under law way too many lobsters have to be thrown back because they are too small and young. Of course a moratorium of lobster fishing in the area for a couple of decades would do wonders for letting the lobster population recuperate but don't hold your breath on seeing that happen anytime soon.
This bell is a trinket purchased in Nova Scotia. The little lobster hanging inside the handle is intended to honor the fact that the tiny Canadian province of Nova Scotia is the world's largest exporter of lobster (sourced from Wikipedia, hope that's right!). I guess maybe they have lots of snakes too? HMM!

SH2-157 is a large, but faint emission complex in the western part of the constellation of Cassiopeia on the border of Cepheus. Its general shape resembles a New England rock lobster claw., hence its nickname. The nebula is about 11,050 lightyears from Earth in the Perseus arm of the Milky Way galaxy.

This little lobster could use some gel for its hair ;-)
Lauriea gardinere is a small squat lobster, up to 7 millimetres (0.28 in) long. It differs from the only other species in the genus, Lauriea siagiani by a number of features, but most obviously by the coloration: L. gardineri is pale brown with darker bands, while L. siagiani is orange or pink with red or purplish markings.
