Piles of these lobster traps are stacked along the fishing wharf and ready to go. Most of the traps today are made of metal but here are still a good number
made of wood.

Contrast between the lobster traps and the diffused feel of the background serves to make the lobster traps stand out strongly... there is a pleasing textural feel to the wooden traps.

Interesting news item at http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/lobster-traps-fishing-right-whales-1.4705828 on the fight between lobster fishermen and the endangered North American right whales resulting in the closure of fishing areas in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
