The River Lady

Your comments and admiration? are always welcome, thanks for looking. Image was taken in Toms River, NJ. It takes a tour of the bay leading out to the Atlantic.

Excellent light and reflections, well captured.

Very nice composition.

Thank you Chris and Eystein. I really liked the reflection in this image but had a little trouble with the sun that day. See you soon..........Holger

Nice composition, beautiful light, and great reflections. Nicely done.

Thanks Bill, I always enjoy hearing from you. See you soon................Holger

Not only that this old ship is interesting but way is caught this image in a calm day with so well seen reflection deesrve compliments,and a ride with this for sure is spectacular.

Holger. Looks a very interesting craft, full of character and history. Nice capture with good light, colours and composition, the reflection adds balance and more interest, very well taken. Best regards Ken.

Radu, Ken Thanks very much for the visit and your kind words. The best part of the this boat ride was the excellent food they served for lunch. Thanks again and see you soon................Holger

Holger: An excellent shot of this grand lady. We have one here that tours the Alabama River and, sad to say, I've only ridden it once. This makes me want to go again... Mike

Hi Holger,

Wonderful image with great composition, colors & details.

Take care,

Patsy

Mike, It's a nice way to spend an afternoon or evening, just don't forget your camera. Thanks for the visit, see you soon....Holger

Hi Patsy, Thanks for your nice comment and looking, see you soon......Holger

Holger, before I read your narrative, I would have placed this fine old paddle wheeler in New Orleans, ready to sail northbound on the Mississippi. Tom's River is fortunate to have a vessel like this available for touring. But what really grabbed my attention about this image is the amazing set of reflections, which together constitute an odd geometry against the sky and trees.

 

My best,

michael

Holgers the reflection makes the image for me, it is splendid. Gorgeous river lady. Warm regards.

Michael thank you for the very good comment regarding this image. I'm currently reading a book called Life on the Mississippi and it's all about the river and the steamboats that traveled that waterway during the 1800's and the book made me recall this image....had to share. Thanks again. See you soon.....Holger

Jorge so glad to hear from you and also glad you like this image. Hope to see more work posted from you soon....Holger

Thanks for viewing my photo and commenting recently Holger. I have had a look at your recent ones and this stood out - great composition and reflection. The cloud also gives the photo nice detail. You have a very good portfolio!
