Feeling is deep and still; and the word that floats on the surface Is as the tossing buoy, that betrays where the anchor is hidden.
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

♫ Gare Du Nord - We Still Grow
"In moments stolen from the ocean of time
Beyond the everlasting balance of mind
In the flow and field of music and rhyme
As a side effect of passion defying
We grow, oooh we still grow
Yeah, we grow, oooh we still grow
Like the sweet taste of a burgundy wine
Like the anchor of your heart borderline
We grow, oooh we still grow
Yeah, we grow, oooh we still grow"
An anchor not only holds the ship in place because it anchors itself to the seabed. The anchor chain must be long enough to hold the ship by the weight of the chain.
Ein Anker hält das Schiff nicht nur fest, weil er sich im Meeresboden verankert. Die Ankerkette muss so lang gesteckt werden, dass das Schiff durch das Gewicht der Kette gehalten wird.
One of the corner posts in an old fence line. The corner posts in a fence line were always thicker, the main anchor and where the rest of the fence was built from. As in life,you need a solid anchor...
Have a great fence friday all-stay safe!
HMS Endeavour, also known as HM Bark Endeavour, was a British Royal Navy research vessel that Lieutenant James Cook commanded to Australia and New Zealand on his first voyage of discovery from 1768 to 1771. (Wiki)
This replica is anchored in Whitby, where James Cook began his three major voyages.. Firstly on the Endeavour then the Adventure and Discovery... (another ship Cook commanded was the Resolution)
She (the Endeavour) departed Plymouth in August 1768, rounded Cape Horn, and reached Tahiti in time to observe the 1769 transit of Venus across the Sun. She then set sail into the largely uncharted ocean to the south, stopping at the Pacific islands of Huahine, Borabora, and Raiatea to allow Cook to claim them for Great Britain. In September 1769, she anchored off New Zealand, the first European vessel to reach the islands since Abel Tasman's Heemskerck 127 years earlier. (Wiki)
By the time I took this shot near Tomahawk Point the wind was really starting to increase in speed. As you'll see here, the trawler has dropped anchor to keep from drifting towards the shoreline and dangerous rocks. The sky from this angle was bereft of clouds and is already taking on an interesting complexion - a combination of the salt air and the sand being whipped up in the foreground. But as far as the composition was concerned, that sky provides some interesting negative space to balance the trawler. Too much water here would have been, well, too much.
P.S. Those dark smudges in the air behind the boat are not spots on my sensor, but sea birds.
Out shooting for my Stuff in the Sand collection at Pescadero State Beach, I came across a rock with a kelp stalk anchored to it among the rocks. Looks like it didn't anchor very well.
This anchor is located in Hythe marina village, Hampshire UK.
Thank you all for taking the time to view, like and comment on our work, we appreciate the support very much.
It is a far, far better thing to have a firm anchor in nonsense than to put out on the troubled seas of thought.
John Kenneth Galbraith
John Kenneth Galbraith (1908–2006), also known as Ken Galbraith, was a Canadian-born economist, public official, and diplomat, and a leading proponent of 20th-century American liberalism. His books on economic topics were bestsellers from the 1950s through the 2000s, during which time Galbraith fulfilled the role of public intellectual. As an economist, he leaned toward post-Keynesian economics from an institutionalist perspective. Source Wikipedia.

Pair of the remains of the Pilgrim, a replica of the ship Richard Henry Dana took around the Cape Horn in the 1830s. A few years ago it sank. The reason has not been determined.
