The forgotten chains
Hello friends
These chains, now perched on the street, are now in the square grouped and static, passing the time without any more tasks that we admire.
Formerly they had a job and that job was to guard the anchor and that when she found corals or land under the water to hold on and the chains held the ship to the anchor, remaining anchored and secure.
as I tell you today they are admired on this esplanade.
Its great and powerful links, made of iron bigger than our hands, seem sad without fulfilling their mission,
Some glued to others, scrambled and huddled.
In the past they would be collected so that they do not become entangled, always ready to fulfill their function the security, mooring and docking of those large ships that sail in our seas.
I particularly like them here, it reminds us of our past as builders of large ships in our Docks, where workers spent years building those large gas carriers and pleasure boats, also small for fishing.
But they have already done their work for many years, they have crossed seas and oceans, years have passed since they were born in a factory in my city called.

Famous in the world of ships for those big and robust links.
I have photographed the chains closely and we see them with that reddish patina that iron and time make them appear giving them the appearance of old age and deterioration, but they still have a lot of metal and if we wanted a lot of marine and marine life.
But now posed and with nothing to do you almost feel sorry for yourself, but you feel small before one of those, your human being unable to lift even one, they are too heavy.
It could well be a chain that a giant's lady would wear around his neck at a gala ball.
They saved lives and made sailors feel safe when the ship anchored at sea.
