Chain Rock


Chain Rock
Originally uploaded by Rexton.
Chain Rock is in the bottom right, and is topped by a channel light. In World War 2 and extending back a few hundred years, a chain was stretched across the Narrows to protect the harbour from incoming enemy vessels. To the left of Chain Rock (not quite in this image) is the Chain Rock Battery, also used in more than one war.

marj k , who picked this wonderful photo for the "Hall of Fame" says:

The decisive moment, as Cartier-Bresson tersely defined it, is ‘the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event as well as the precise organization of forms which gives that event its proper expression."

Cable Beach sunset

Camel ride at sunset.

I'm rather embarrassed by how well this turned out - it was one of those tourist moments "Everyone, everyone! Over here please! Now if we wait for a moment the camels will come past and you'll be able to get a shot of them against the sunset!"

This awesome photo was in the #1 spot for a few days, and then was selected by Hotash to the Hall of Fame. It was then chosen as "Icon & Featured Foto of the Week"

I'm never up early enough for a sunrise (I work nights) except for today when I was forced to stay up late for this and thank goodness because I wouldn't have wanted to miss this sky.

This was taken on my last Evening in Corpus. For days the sky was cloudless at sunset but I was not to be denied my favorite time of day. I took off an hour early to make sure I didn't miss a thing.
