Wednesday Walk - SUMMER EVENING IN THE PORT

in Wednesday Walk4 years ago (edited)

The COVID-19 situation cut the number of tourists to a bare minimum ...

... but there is still some tourism here in the small port of the village called Liznjan.

You can still see some people ... and some colorful stuff made of plastic ...

... but the scene is much quieter than usual in this part of the year.

There is a nice old man that sales his delicious agricultural products from the nearby fields, at affordable prices.

Trading is taking place under a large parasol with CORONA EXTRA written on it ... :D which sounds deliciously ironic to me ... I always appreciate cool little details like this.

In the background, behind the docks and the boats, you can see a big crane ... from some hotel construction site a bay away from the port.

The seagull is watching over the work in progress.

Some interesting larva ... with an interesting shelter made of straws is resting on the old summer house not far from there.

As the quiet sunny afternoon is turning into the, even more quiet, meditative evening ...

... the fishing boats ...
IMG_2004 malo.jpg
... and their crews ...

... are getting ready for the action.

Summer nights are short, they must quickly locate the sardines and bring some fish back with them, to keep the business going.

In this very calm part of the year, from the meteorological prospective at least ...
IMG_2149 malo.jpg
... the fishing boats are going out of the bay almost every evening.
IMG_2142 malo.jpg
I saw these scenes so many times ...
IMG_2144 malo.jpg
... but I never get bored.
IMG_1994 malo.jpg
Is like an old movie that has some special connection with you ...
IMG_1995 malo.jpg
... so you can watch it over and over again.

From some angles this boat parade looks like a race :D
IMG_2012 malo.jpg
While some relatively big fishing boats are going out of the bay, headed to their hunting grounds in deeper waters ...

... some small, diurnal fishermen are returning to the port.
IMG_2022 malo.jpg
Some people are sitting and enjoying the horizon...
IMG_2016 malo.jpg
... while some small dog is passing by.
IMG_2017 malo.jpg
Then the curious little dog approaches them ... they talk about something with the dog, but I'm too far, so I can't hear the conversation.
IMG_2019 malo.jpg
The dog is soon back on his way ... headed to the docks ... and about an hour later ...
IMG_2342 malo.jpg
... the night arrived ... bringing the full moon with her, to attenuate the darkness.

As always in these posts on HIVE, the photographs are my work.

Due to the influence of Covid-19 and losing my job, I learned and joined Hive

Cool. Great that this new online opportunity exists. It takes some time to build from nothing some kind of career here - but with a lot of pretty hard and consistent blogging work, it's definitely possible.

It helps I think to join communities that match your interests. Then people are more likely to find your blog.
Good luck!

True, with communities the chances are much better.

You had a very nice day. The photo of the last month was very clear and beautiful. your camera is beautiful.

No worries, Czech tourists are already on their way :D Just a week ago or so, one of the biggest transportation companies here launched a brand new train route to Rijeka and most of the trains got sold out immediately :D

:D The cavalry is coming ! :) The season will be rescued. I can hear the trumpet in the distance!

Watch out for the corona shade tent lol.

:D Let's get together under the same disease.

Very beautiful places! But this year I have never been to a river or other body of water, although the heat is simply murderous, and it's time to go, at least to catch the crayfish)

Is great to see some water in the summer heat :) it's refreshing just to look at.
I have a lot of salty water ... but besides the one muddy pond ... there's not much freshwater around here.
