As always, thanks for your support! ❤️
After last night's heavy snowfall, I bundled up against the sub zero temperatures and went on a photo shoot down to the newly redeveloped historic Waterfront and Shipyards complex. Enjoy the series!
North Vancouver, BC, Canada
It was once the largest shipyard in the world, but in the 1980s the 'Nederlandse Dok en Scheepsbouw Maatschappij' went bankrupt and the site on the north side of the IJ became vacant. Nowadays you imagine yourself here in Brooklyn or Berlin, because the messy yard with its rusty sheds and unruly concrete has become the ideal backdrop for a new generation of creative people and entrepreneurs.
The Botterwerf is the oldest shipyard in the Netherlands that is still in operation. Spakenburg is the only place in the province of Utrecht that used to be on the sea, the Zuiderzee. Just like any other place on the former Zuiderzee, fishing was a major source of life. The fishing vessels have since been turned into a brown fleet. In Spakenburg, the shipyard is still making and repairing the old shipyard's botters for that fleet.
The history of the yard goes back to 1750. The yard consists of four slipways, a red wooden shed (1901), a bone shed (1840) and a forge (1904) on Oude Schans. The yard is a so-called sleigh yard, the ship is supported by a sleigh throughout its length. It is therefore extremely suitable for wooden ships. The wharf played an important role in the development of the Zuiderzee fishery.
Companies provide lifting the ship in dock and inspection, hull cleaning, painting and processing of underwater parts, as well as engine overhaul, equipment (including hydraulic) installation, cutting of metal, cleaning, painting, gas and electrical welding, as well as turning, milling and other works.
Thanks a lot for your time, your likes and your comments.

Have you ever been to a location where you didn't have particularly high expectations, and when you saw it, your jaw just dropped ... and you were blown away! Well, for me this was a case like that. I can't recall another one lately.
The waterfall is literally in someone's backyard and passes under a bridge, in an area of Connecticut known as Middle Haddam. Although it seems unbelievable, there used to be a shipyard here! Also, the timing worked out, as I was able to capture some late autumn vibes. And I didn't trespass into someone's backyard - It's turns out there's a narrow path from the side that doesn't intrude.
Happy Wednesday all!
