Sumpter Wharf, Oamaru, New Zealand, built in 1894 specifically to accomodate the new frozen meat export industry. It's state of disrepair means it is out of bounds to humans but the Gulls and Parekareka (Spotted Shag) can still enjoy it. There are moves afoot by the local Historical Society to have it restored. The specks that can be seen on the breakwater behind the wharf are also Parekareka, sometimes it is completely full of them. There are two on the wharf, if you can spot them :)

Nice clear photo. I like the reflections off the water of the sky and the wharf. Good shot.

Ooh I loooove this shot! I think its because of the beautiful colors of blue and I love how the dock breaks up the blue sky and the blue water. Beautiful picture. :)

There are some great lines and patterning here - the line of birds along the top, the posts of the piers, the patterns in the water. That, along with the wonderful color, make it a great shot.
