Catching Up with the Frontenac

So this is the ship that dragged me up to Port Huron.
 The Frontenac is owned by Canada Steamship Lines and is one of a handful of Canadian built lakers left.
 For that reason, I am not sure how much longer I will be able to see her.
 She is certainly a beautiful looking ship and I'll have to say that the lighting was right for her.
 One of two spots where you can get a head shot.  This is one of the reasons why I like getting ship pictures up in Port Huron.  The spot where I can get the same on Belle Isle is a pain to get to right now.  Besides, I like the clean background here.
 She makes the turn towards the channel.
 I kind of liked the shot of her framed by the Blue Water Bridge.
 The other spot where you can get a head shot.  If you look behind the Frontenac, you can see one of the ships that are anchored off Port Huron.
 She makes the other turn to go further down the St. Clair River.
 Another shot with the Blue Water Bridge in it.
 I kind of wish this casino wasn't in the background.  Would love this shot even more.
 the almost beam shot.  You can't quite get a beam shot here because the river is too narrow.
 A shot of her pilothouse.
 and her deckhouse.
 She continues down the river.  I don't remember where she was heading in this series of pictures.
One more stern shot.  I kind of like this one with the Canadian flag prominently displayed.
