Barges are such ornate boats, I am not sure that applies to the pilots as well lol. I am loving this series for the memories its bringing back. Great colours and reflections again. Thank you for these shots, I feel about ten again looking at them.

Looks like a tight fit. Nice angle and the colors are great. I spied his woolen hat. It looks like a nice way to get about. Very nice Patti.

I'm curious what your answer was Patti. Think I would have said: "Only when you're are bald headed", lol
Love this long boat image too!!

Really nice Patti, the angles created by the light and the bridge together with the blue and browns all make a very nice image.

Super job Patti, I like the glow of the sun in this one, and the way the bridge frames the picture. Was that intentional?

Hi, Patti - this is, as usual, wonderful. You have such a keen eye for this stuff. I've found myself with very little time on my hands anymore so I fall way behind on my friends. I viewed several of your images that I've missed and they are all superb. Keep up the good work -
