About This Image

The Chicamacomico Life-Saving Service Station in Rodanthe was the first to be built and manned in North Carolina in 1874. It remained in service until 1954 (the Life-Saving Service was renamed as the US Coast Guard in 1915).

Throughout all those years, Chicamacomico never lost a surf man during a rescue - an amazing feat considering the rudimentary life-saving equipment they used.

These artifacts were retrieved from various sunken vessels along the treacherous waterways of the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

Thank you, Zoya. Lately I seem to be in a slightly more complex mode, with muted colors. I liked the effect of the artifacts alone, then thoughts of including the Ocean who created their existence in the present form seemed to be appropriate - there were several versions before I opted to post this one.

This is one of those photos that speak volumes to me I love this very well done and composed

Thank you Carol - I wanted the effect of the source of the artifacts from the Atlantic - the calm seas felt appropriate for an "After the Storms" effect.
