This is a picture taken in Oct. 2006. It is of a two-masted schooner which was docked at riverfront park in downtown Windsor on Detroit River. I think this ship was touring the Great Lakes. I know I took this early on a Sunday morning in Oct because I recall I could hear celebration going on across the river in Detroit, Michigan...but could not see Detroit because of fog. The reason for celebration was that the Detroit Tiger baseball team had beat the New York Yankees for the American League pennant and advanced to World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals...and we know how that turned out TICK!!...Anyways that is what I remember about that morning...

What a stunning image you have captured here, very spooky ye old style photo.... excellent

Top drawer, Gerry. This looks like it would make a great cover for a John Carpenter book.

Beautiful image Gerry...Your choice of crop enhances the majesty of this ship, and of course the fog adds a dramatic quality. Once again you have shown great perception and skill. Hope you don't mind if I fav this one. Thanks

I reckon that ghost ships are all the same watercraft after all ..
Thus this image goes to the folder [I keep] of the best desktops of the world and of all times. Howgh.

Even in this misty fog, I have a clear, vivid recollection how that series turned out Gerry. Good photo and I feel like I'm sneaking onboard. Stowaway. Makes me think of Casblanca for some reason. I know it was a plane but.............. Good photo Gerry.

Like fogz said, first thing that came to my mind was a ghost ship, great photo. And yes my Cardinals won that World Series.

Whoa Gerry....awesome shot! The fog gives this boat an ethereal appearance. There is enough light shining through that the viewer can see, but plenty is obscured to allow the mind to wander......to places of vivid imagination!
Go Cardinals! ;=)
Thanks for sharing this with us !

This kinda reminds me of a ghost ship. If it was black and white, it would look like a scene from The Twilight Zone. I like ships like that. Very nice, Gerry.

If you love something, set it free.
It it comes back to you, it is yours.
If it does not, it was never meant to be.

"Where there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see." ~Dorothea Lange
Can't you just picture that coming at you out of the fog? Very unusual capture.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined. (Henry David Thoreau)
Hey there my friend! This really caught my eye, it was on the main caedes page just now..and how totally filled with soft drama this is. I love fog. Well, where I live, a person either has to love it or hate it!! And I love the softness of it all.
It must have felt so good to feel the quiet of this moment. And I'm so happy you took this shot. The depth is wonderful too. V

An excellent capture Gerry but object on the lower left is very distracting and takes away from the main focus. I would suggest taking it out to make this shot perfect.
