The sun coming up seen through the framework and rigging of a fishing boat at the fish pier in Boston.

Just wonderful! Pictures like these show the benefits of getting out of bed early! Thanks for a beautiful sunrise, Chris! 🙂
Thank you, Sarah. This required both an early morning and freezing my butt off. But the image came out well. Cheers!
It was well worth the effort and the icicles around your butt 😂 Cheers!
Funny you mention icicles. There was a fishing boat in that must have just arrived and icicles were hanging all over the rigging. I just could not get close enough for a good photo.
Next time you should also bring a swimsuit with you! 😉
That is about what it would have taken. It was at the pier but much lower. I think there may have been a rope ladder involved. That’s safe, right?
Totally safe – as long as you don’t use it 😉
Agreed. It likely would have meant a swim… with my camera.
Ok, waterproof equipment should stand on your next birthday list 😉
Oh yeah, definitely. There were some men on the boat but I thought the odds of them letting me board was pretty low.
So you’ll also need something to bribe people with you on your trips! 😉 The list is getting longer and longer… 😂
I think I am going to need a lot of money for the new gear and bribes. A bottle of whiskey likely would have gotten me on board. 🍸
Ah! But not any whiskey! ☝ Make it a 25 year old Talisker for example and you would get on any board of your choice 😉
That would cost me a fortune but I could likely get on a really nice boat.
The sky offers so many opportunities for snapshots. Wouldn’t you agree? 🌞
Early morning butt freezing photos are good 🙂
The photos are good. I am not sure about the butt freezing.
We suffer for out art…some parts of us more than others.
This is true. Honestly, it’s my fingers that freeze out there. Cheers!
The entire horizon is aglow and looks like not a cloud in the sky. A minute later, it would be an entirely different photo.
That is the trick with sunrise and sunset images; the light changes so darn fast. Cheers
love the tiny fiery strip in the sky dividing the darkness… beautiful !!
Thank you, Alex. I played with this with a couple of boats and a few angles. It’s an interesting area. Cheers
Beautiful color and depth…love it!
Thank you so much, Kim. Cheers
That’s a gorgeous sunrise! Thanks for sharing it!
Oh thank you. I appreciate it. It was a beautiful morning. Cheers!
I have always wondered if the fish pier is still active. I’m guessing it still is? Thanks for another solid picture
Thank you…Yes, it is still active. There is a conference center in the building at the end of the pier but most of the other places are fishsellers and of course, the No-Name restaurant.
Thank you for that. I am excited to check it out now. I don’t live too far from there and by Google Mapping it, I also noticed a ferry to the Cape leaves from there. The more I explore Boston, the more excited I get. Now, if only winter will end!
I took the ferry from Provincetown back to Boston once. It is a quick way to make the trip. Cheers
What a great capture…love it!!
OK, Chris! I have an idea: scuba diving suit and some kind of warm heated air flow through the suit. . .
I loved the sun rising over this boat rigging and it was a stunning photograph!
Thank you. I think I’ll skip the whole Jacques Cousteau idea. I am adventurous but not that adventurous. Ha ha ha. Cheers
Such a beautiful picture!
Thank you. Sunrise, makes for some beautiful images. Cheers!
