Dungeness crab season is heralded by the loading of traps in Eureka. Fishing boats transport them off shore where the crustaceans feast on the bait. The fishermen haul the heavy, crab laden, traps back on board with winches and haul them back to harbor where we get to feast on them through the Holidays. From shore, I can see the flood- lights mounted on 30 foot masts bob up and down in the huge swells common during December. I have shot some eerie images of lights on the horizon. These are  particularly dramatic when the moon is setting.
