Marina

It was a beautiful early morning. I had my camera aimed at the boats gently bobbing along the ramps at this local marina. Little did I know at the time that I was being watched from the nest on the pole to the left. I'm going to conjecture that it's an osprey's nest. They are are all around along the water. Give em a post with a platform, and they'll oblige. We have been reminded lately that those photos we take with our cells, or digital photographs we take and load on computers are here forever. They're out there someplace and never go away. Well, at least until I take a sledgehammer to my hard drive!
Technology is scary.
You never know who might be taking a peek at you.
Look at the birdie!

  1. Pluses and minuses, but technology is here to stay. Darn right it is scary; I've had a few on my own computers that have me baffled, annoyed, enraged, yet helpless. I have an unwanted porno site that appears on my dashboard and Blogger hasn't responded with any kind of help.

  3. What a beautiful scene you've posted for us today. Yes, we must all be careful about what we post on line. I know for a fact that employers are now checking Google and Facebook before they hire someone.

  4. I love it! What a perfect spot for an osprey nest. The fishing is probably great and you can't beat the view.

  5. You are right about the images: I just found by chance some photos I posted online almost twenty years ago. I forgot the website and them, but they are still there!
    By the way, I love that nest with a view!

  6. Ah but being watched by a bird is so much better than being watched by (most) humans...

  9. Nice that they put a platform there to help the ospreys. I live a dull enough life that there aren't any photos that would get me in trouble. So sad!

  10. I'm with Jack. Nothing exciting of me floating around out there.

  11. Nice view!
    Forget the sledge hammer. Once those shots escape into the ether they take on a life of their own. Yep. Scary for those of us who are non-nerdy mortals.
