This is another rework of a childhood memory. It was always a treat when I was younger to ride the ferry across the Cumberland River. It finally shut down and a bridge was built not long after I took this photo. The area still looks the same today(minus the ferry)and is used as a public boat ramp. Edited in PhotoFiltre and Paint.NET. Thanks for taking a look. -Christie

Christie, this really has a wonderful older look to it, your presentation is very good. The Cumberland rive was such a major waterway, and still is. Nashville is my home away from home, it's been a year since I have been down there, and I miss it.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

I love the way this turned out Christie! I really like the ferry, it seems so small, although I'm sure that when you were a child it must have appeared enormous to you! The landscape is lovely. I love the old eighties cars, I'm sure they were brand new back then. I just love the eighties, I was just getting ready to start High School, ah, the good old days:)

Love this Christie . Well taken and presented.
To bad the ferry is now gone . That is the case in many parts of the United States and I think that's sad.
Excellent post.

A very cool photo my Friend. There is a comfortable essence within this shot. There is definitely a sense of 'the past' in this as well opening one's imagination and personal memories. Nicely done.
