So much of the world relies on sea freight. Even during the pandemic these are the jobs that are probably the most secure. Someone has to do it or the world would grind to a halt. I would imagine the contact to other people in a job like this is minimal and the workers spend so much time at the sea that they aren't in that big of a risk.
Yesterday I signed a work contract. I finally have a job! I was supposed to get it in January, but then one delay after another led to it happening only now, 8 months later. Back in March when the pandemic was just picking up in Finland, me getting a job felt like it's a forever away. But I've overcome that forever. Hopefully everything goes according to plan and I will also get a better car! My current car leaks oil, every winter the AC leaks out the refrigerant, the wheel alignments are wonky and won't stay fixed, the wheel bearings are probably done, can't lock the doors anymore, the windshield is cracked and worn. It has done over 320 thousand kilometers.
This picture was taken in Finnsnes, Senja in Norway. This view looked so classic that I had to stop to get a picture of it.

More than two decades ago, a quartet of shiny new ES44AC locomotives pull a colorful train of shipping containers through Henefer, Utah in gorgeous evening sunlight.

On 29th August the OS 35 collided with the gas tanker Adam LNG off Gibraltar and suffered underwater damage. She was deliberately grounded here in shallow water to avoid sinking or breaking up in deeper water. Dutch salvage company Koole Contractors are now in charge of removing her cargo of 33,632 tons of steel bars. They are hoping to salvage the ship in two sections on to large barges for recycling.
Solva was originally a very busy port and considered the main trading centre of St Brides Bay. During the 18th Century, Solva was a shipping port involved in the transportation of corn to other areas of Wales and Bristol. Limestone and coal were both transported to the harbour in flat-bottomed boats
The Lightship Amrumbank has ensured safety for decades by illuminating the waters of the North Sea as a floating lighthouse. The ship served in various strategic positions, essential for the navigation and safety of countless ships in the busy shipping area.
De Lichtschip Amrumbank heeft tientallen jaren de veiligheid gewaarborgd door als drijvende vuurtoren de wateren van de Noordzee te verlichten. Het schip diende op verschillende strategische posities, essentieel voor de navigatie en veiligheid van talloze schepen in het drukke scheepvaartsgebied.
You must forgive me for posting the occasional image of the Golden Gate Bridge. I like this view of the bridge at sunset because it shows how busy the San Francisco Bay is: one tanker is entering the Bay while another is leaving, and a small fishing vessel makes its way between the two. And then, of course, there is the bridge against a colorful sky, but no fog!

On this morning, there was a very low tide. I walked to the end of the jetty on the right side and decided I would climb to the top to take a couple of pics from there. I got about 3/4 of the way up before I slipped and fell. I rolled down the rocks back to the sand. I think every inch of my body hit a rock. I hurt pretty badly. I slowly got up and hobbled my way back to my car. Over the next couple of days, my body tuned black and blue and I was very sore. Four days later I finally went to urgent care where I found out I had cracked a rib. Well, I got a few pictures and my camera never left my hand. My body will heal but a broken camera would have hurt worse. Lesson learned!
