After giving Andy a ride to downtown early this morning, I did a quick stop at the Municipal Wharf. This past week I noticed several fishing boats out on the water at night, and I was hoping to take pictures as they came in for the day. I'm curious to know what they're catching. They haven't used their big, bright squid lights, but by the full moon I can tell their boats are often surrounded by gulls. I think I was too early today, as the fish market fellas were just arriving in their big trucks to prepare for loading and icing the catches. In any case, I had the chance to watch the sunrise from a different perspective. It was beautiful.
As it happens in my blog reader, Shaina from Middle of Everywhere mentions the Belt of Venus. Oho! I never knew that pink glow that so often accompanies sunrises and sunsets has a name. Cool! I also want to mention that I've been seeing an awful lot of shooting stars (2-14 over the course of an hour and a half before sunrise) in the north skies since mid-December. Has anyone else noticed this, too?
