ABC Wednesday - D is for Dock



D is for Dock............



a wood dock a low tide



One look at this dock and one can instantly see the level of the tide.

From this shot, it is easy to see that it is low tide.

Not only is the walkway leading down to the dock at a steep angle, the posts that the dock rises and falls against are quite tall.

When the tide is high, these posts appear quite a bit shorter as the dock rises up along their length.

A couple of good sized fishing charter boats are usually docked here, and check out those stairs leading up to nothing along the dock edge. They look kind of funny without the boat there.




This is the fifth round of ABC Wednesday. If you would like to join in please visit this site for the details.

  3. Hey Kathy, way cool image, the stairs do look funny without a boat there,lol. I love tides, saw the action at the China sea beach during low and then high tide and how they relate to the moon and sun.
