This week’s CFFC topic is Anything to do with boats. There are so many things that you can photograph regarding boats. And by boats I mean any water vehicle that has an engine or paddles. You can have a kayak, canoe, boat, tug boat, sail boat, yacht, cargo ships, commercial ships, and even a cruise ship. Show the entire boat, in or out of water. Show only the engine if you want. It will be fun to see what you all come up with to delight me. Be creative and mostly have a lot of fun.
This challenge both new and archived photos are allowed. The main purpose of this challenge is to create community and get to know each other through photography.

Cee's Photo Challenges 
Fascinating details! I particulary like that propelling screw / propeller / ship’s screw (whatever the technical term for it is). It almost looks like flower petals. — I know it’s not ‘monochrome Thursday’ but my photo looked better in stark black & white.

This challenge takes all types of color, monochrome or black and white. Sometimes photos do turn out better in black and white. 😀 😀

Hi there, Below are a few boat posts of interest. Lake Tahoe has a wooden boat show every year so I took some photos of the beautiful boats and some of their details. Also on a work trip to Chicago a few years back I had the pleasure of taking a police boat tour through the city which is truly a highlight to the trip despite the frigid temps! Enjoy. Hugs.

I love the drama of the way the large black freighter looms over you, and the abstract feel of the red boat anchor chain.
