Ship on the Beach

Published by curiousweaver at 5:44 pm under Life

The storms down the coast of NSW last week have barely left a house or business untouched. Nearly every house in Old Bar was affected in some way but when the storm hit Newcastle and the Central Coast it really left major extended damage to property and restoration of essential services.Many are still waiting for power.

One amazing consequence is the ship which landed on Nobbys Beach in Newcastle.Newcastle has many ships waiting to come into the port lined up but one got loose. These photos are the best I’ve seen of the enormity of the ship in relation to the landscape. Everyone who has been down to see it is overwhelmed.

    This made the news here in the US, but your photos are so much more spectacular. Absolutely amazing.

    Impressive photos, but I’m puzzled. Why are the people on the ship so much bigger than the people in the foreground on land? It almost looks as if the picture has been doctored.

    Love your site and your weaving. Your blog is in my “Daily” file.
