Rusty metal buoys along the Cook
inlet beach by the Kasilof river
last April in Alaska.

Mostly see plastic buoys used, tho
some metal ones are still around.

What a fascinating find! Love these shots!

Thank you so much ❤ @thekittygirl! :-)
Hope all is well your way!

Awesome shots and edits @shasta!! I've never seen metal ones before..they look pretty cool! I love the way they came out in black and white, sitting on the sand like that. 💖

Thank you very much ❤ @deerjay! :-)
Everytime we go there I just love taking pictures of
them, sometimes I rap my knuckles on them to hear
there metal sounds, so much more fun than plastic! lol

You're very welcome @shasta and I would so do that too if I could..lol. 🙂

Wow ! That is really big !

I wouldn't mind having one in y yard. LOL !

Thank you ❤ @jacey.boldart! :-)
Oh you and me both! These beach balls would
be great yard ornaments!

Great shots Shasta. Those metal buoys are rare.

Thank you ❤ @redheadoei! :-)
They are pretty rare indeed, as the plastic
ones seem to be everywhere, only a few spots
have some metal ones left. Even seen some still
in use over by Kenai river mouth.

There's something both archaic and otherworldly about those buoys in black and white.

''archaic and otherworldly'' awesome description!
I was surprised how they looked in black and white
like that, world of difference from the color!
