Any drive along the coast of Maine will take you past the working pieces of the lobster industry. I loved the look of this red building against the blue of the ocean, and the stacks of rugged and bright lobster traps set in neat, geomentric precision stands in contrast the the way they scatter across the sea bed when out getting the catch. It's backbreaking work done in a setting of heartbreaking beauty. I'm grateful for the work of the men and women who work on the sea.
