Description
"Crab Rings and Bumpers" by Thom Zehrfeld
The scene is Dock 7 in Newport on the Central Oregon Coast! It is a place where the Crab Fisherman store their crab gear when not in use.
The colorful boat bumpers you see in the foreground are numbered and are identifiable to the owner as they attach them to the crab rings in the background.
The bumpers are attached to the crab rings by rope and thrown overboard in the Pacific Ocean..the bumpers float. The Crabbers keep track of the rings by GPS.
This image has been converted to High Dynamic Range (HDR) by combining three different exposures to give the image more detail and color, and then incorporating a unique painted effect.
