The Margaret Todd docked in Bar Harbor after sunset on a cloudy evening. Some showers rolled through, leading to a slightly breezy late evening on the water. Increased the ISO here to keep the shutter speed down around 2 seconds as the breeze was moving the docked ship a little. I did this knowing that I was zooming in to 40mm with the lens, and wanted any movement there kept to a minimum.
Canning Dock was opened in 1737 as the Dry Dock, a protected tidal basin providing an entrance to Old Dock. Having been subsequently enclosed as a wet dock three years earlier,[4] in 1832 it was officially named after the Liverpool MP George Canning. To the east is the site of Old Dock, built in 1709, which was the world's first enclosed commercial dock. Canning Dock would have initially served ships involved in the trans Atlantic slave trade.
St Katharine Docks, in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, were one of the commercial docks serving London, on the north side of the river Thames just east (downstream) of the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. They were part of the Port of London, in the area now known as the Docklands.

The Albert Docks, Liverpool, UK is a complex of dock buildings and warehouses in Liverpool, England. Designed by Jesse Hartley and Philip Hardwick, it was opened in 1846, and was the first structure in Britain to be built from cast iron, brick and stone, with no structural wood. As a result, it was the first non-combustible warehouse system in the world.
At the time of its construction the Albert Dock was considered a revolutionary docking system because ships were loaded and unloaded directly from/to the warehouses. Two years after it opened it was modified to feature the world's first hydraulic cranes. Due to its open yet secure design, the Albert Dock became a popular store for valuable cargoes such as brandy, cotton, tea, silk, tobacco, ivory and sugar.
Today the Albert Dock is a major tourist attraction in the city and the most visited multi-use attraction in the United Kingdom, outside of London. It is a vital component of Liverpool's UNESCO designated World Heritage Maritime Mercantile City and the docking complex and warehouses also comprise the largest single collection of Grade I listed buildings anywhere in the UK.

In the summer, this is the place where lots of people gather to catch the boat at this improvised dock to a nearby island. Now, during stormy autumn, it's quite deserted.

W G Bagnell 2623 'Harwarden' works over the internal rail network crossing the trestle bridge over the River Derwent that links the steel works and the docks in the town. The concrete trestle bridge was damaged during the floods of 2009, that also washed Northside river bridge away in the town and was later demolished. 14th Sept 2002

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.

Seems like you can walk on this dock right into the sunset. A beautiful sunset on Key Largo in the Florida Keys.
I wanted to use this dock as a foreground element, yet still focus on the beautiful sky in this photo. What's nice about being in the Florida Keys is the views sometimes include small islands in the distance, adding to the scenic variety of this beautiful location.
As the sky is so expansive, I combined 3 exposures from my 6D and TS-E 17 tilt-shift lens using the shift function, without moving the camera at all. I am happy with the result. I hope this image makes you feel like you can be there. Enjoy!
Albert Dock, alongside the Tate of the North, this theatrical group gave a fine concert to large crowds...here, in this picture, they were singing a traditional old Liverpool ballad, "Whiskey on a Sunday" (Note the Irish spelling of Whiskey)
