Re-Coil
Uploaded: October 25, 2010
For today, it's a different take on the coiled rope from the fishing schooner Sherman Zwicker that we boarded at the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath. It's a gloomy Monday here, but unseasonably warm.

Rust AND rope! With a little ampersand center. A boater's mandala, Monnie, and a photographer's delight. Well seen and presented, and I prefer this larger version of the circle. #8994586Jyri Vissak October 25, 2010

Same kind of weather down here Monnie, expect rain tonight. Every-time I see a coil of rope I think of the person who painstakingly put it there. Neat find with excellent detail. #8995306Patricia A. Stalter October 25, 2010

WOW! What a perfectly coiled rope! COOL! I have FOREVER been looking for a RUG like this! Remember them? I know how to make them by hand out of old clothes but it's PAINFUL WORK sewing it all once it's coiled.Great job Monnie!

Gotta love the perfect symmetry with the little twist in the center. This is my favorite of your October entries, Monnie. You do GREAT rope detail shots and I liked Ship Shapes, too. Other favorites are Celebration Time (great detail, colors and light) and Please Help Me (wonderful detail there, too). Good luck in the contest. #9034251Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
