Well they served the purpose in catching the lobster and I am sure are still used yet. They made for a beautiful picture here with that pov letting us look over the top of them and the sea they were used in the background with gorgeous colors. An artful look Patrick. #1622551

What a treat to see these hand made traps that tell a story of years of service! Nice touch having the sea as the horizon. Thanks for signing Mary's card, Patrick. #11325114

I wonder if these ones caught more lobsters than the the new ones Patrick! An excellent study with great light and tones! #11325136

Love the soft pastel light against the old weathered, finely detailed wood, Paddy. I'm such a landlubber that I never knew there were handmade wooden lobster traps...I know, duhhhhhh! :) :) Great find, wonderful contrast of color and textures and beautifully taken! #11325207

Wonderful design, reflected light, tones and mood, Patrick! Sometimes "progress" makes me really sad. #11349096
