Many thanks to HEIDI for hosting this week's challenge. A really nice theme, and one most folks should have photos for!! Let's see your boats, ships, yachts, etc!!

Here are mine:

1) Ferry at local port five miles from where I live, leaving for Ireland.

  4. Wales is certainly a country for boats. I did not know that there was a ferry to Ireland. You have a great choice with your boat pictures.

    1. Thanks Pat :-)) There are two ferry services to Ireland from Wales. one here in the south, at Pembroke Dock, and one in the north at Holyhead.

  5. Such lovely pictures, such nice boats. I like the ferry with the white and blue of the clouds and sky. The name of the boat from Dorset seems to be "Ow Much"; charming. Curious old boat with water in it and very colorful sails on the bottom.

    1. Thanks Benni :-)) Yes, that boat's name is 'Ow Much'. Although I think there should be a question-mark after it.

  6. Great shots, Mitch! I love the clouds reflected in the water in that first shot.

    Funny name for the fishing boat in your second pic.

    The third is very interesting with another great capture of reflections.

    The last one is my favorite. The colorful sails really stand out!
