Perth boat shed

I was up very early and was heading down to Cottesloe Beach to grab some early morning shots of the Cot Pylon (see my photosteam if interested) and spotted this boat shed. It's been a fixture of the Perth foreshore since the 1930s, but like many things after a while you don't see the wood for the trees. As I drove past I suddenly realised..."stuff the Cot Pylon!!!!". It was VERY cold and there was a slight mist lifting on the water. I only wished I had set up 10 minutes before and I could have caught the mist and some truly superb early morning light. Either way, we all know the best time to get up is EARLY!!! A large fat pelican swam over to check things out and was bobbing around just off to my right.
