Another tug that Dan and I spotted along the Mississippi in the Baton Rouge Port. The gentleman in the back is texting , at least he isn't the Captain.

That's the cleanest water I've ever seen that far north up the River. this picture must have been taken September or later when the river drops below 3 Ft on the New Orleans Gauge and the Salt Water Wedge forces up the river bringing in the cleaner gulf water

did you say the guy on the rear was a Tug Texter?

You sure can see from the trees on the shore that it was windy day - good action catch.

One can see that this is a powerful tug - one of those that push a row of barges tied together. Nice shot Marsha.

Great looking photography and love the feeling of movement in this photo along with the lovely detail and colours.Plus the detail in this shot is lovely and sharp you can see detail from front right to the far distance.What fascinates me in this photo is how low the tug is in the river and I think the man texting is calling for help as the skipper as gone missing lol.

At least he isn't texting while piloting the tug. Beautiful capture, Marsha.

Tugs always amaze me. My best friends' dad used to own a tugboat business and we got to go with him a couple times! Wonderful and colorful capture Marsha!!!

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
