Friday Fotos - Seals at Manomet Point

I did not take any artistic pictures this week, but seals are always fun to see.  With the warmer days and low tide around 1PM, the seals were out basking (if they can bask on cloudy days) at Manomet Point.  Manomet Point is right next to White Horse Beach, about 4 miles from our home.  It is amazing how many seals there were this week.

The Best Picture I Could Get with my Telephoto Lens

Almost Every Rock Above the Waterline Had a Seal On It

More Seals

And More


Some of Those Objects Are Seals, not Rocks, Many Rocks had Multiple Seals

The rocks off this point have always been a hazard to ships.  Three men lost their lives trying to rescue passengers on the steamship Robert E. Lee in March 10, 1928.  In a couple of weeks it will be the 94th anniversary.
My one attempt at creativity on this post.  This is the relief on the monument shown in the previous photo.
