Images of Carey Bay

While I continue to organise my research on the people and places in Carey Bay I haven't been blogging so much. As living on the edge of the Bay provides me a 180 degree+ view I regularly grab my phone to run out and grab an image of a current activity or condition.

The purpose of a One Place Study is to record and preserve the past. I just realised that once I take a photo I have captured an image of the past, a moment in time which immediately afterwards becomes recent history.

As I have an archive of Carey Bay photos at my fingertips I am going to start using this blog to share and preserve the visual history of my One Place - Carey Bay. I launched this site in April 2024, however, as Blogger software allows me to predate posts, I will predate some image posts to the date on which they were taken. Sharing these images online they will assist in preserving them for future generations. 

To start the ball rolling I'm sharing three images taken around dusk this evening. I took these pics because I was entranced by the light at that time. The bonus was that two images showed a person on a kayak who was out checking on his/her crab pots. Recreational fishers in Lake Macquarie are currently allowed to have 2 crab pots. Information is available on the Government Fisheries Site.
