A couple of these pictures are out of order relative to the other posts, but since I group the pictures together by subject, they will go in here.
I had a chance to catch Alpena in the golden light, which was a bonus. If you look to the left, you can see the Coast Guard Fast Response boat.The Alpena was coming to Detroit after doing an unload in Essexville. It has been a while since I've seen her. If you look to the top of the picture, you will see the Dolphin.
I saw her earlier on Marine Traffic but I wasn't sure she would be passing in enough light.
Not only was she passing in enough light but she was passing the golden light which is the perfect time to take pictures.
The sun is at such an angle, it will make subjects pop.
The Dolphin still in picture.
I probably could have caught her sooner, but I wanted to do planes.
I like this shot.
She continues on her way, it looks like she has a little rust on her hull but that might be from a scraping.
A relatively unbusy background. As you can see, the colors in this area are pretty close to peak.
She starts to pass Windsor.
The Windsor skyline in the background.
Showing off her flags.
Again, another relatively uncluttered background.
the bow shining.
She approaches the Ambassador Bridge.
I think she was turning towards the Windsor shore so that she could make her docking turn.
She's about to pass the Ambassador Bridge.
She passes.
Showing off one of the towers of the Gordie Howe Bridge.
I like this shot.
And a nice stern shot.
All in all, I had a good weekend. Catching a train but sadly not a steam engine. A hawk. Some planes and I finish with the Alpena.
