This is the Potomac River (considerably southeast of Washington DC) on its way to the Chesapeake Bay. As you can see, the river is very wide at this point. It is a very different world here from the cement turf where they play hardball wheeling and dealing. I found the people friendly and relaxed...perhaps influenced by the great river and their opportunities to go out on it. There's a fishing boat in the distance, and you can see some crab cages on the pier. I hung around for awhile after shooting this picture, hoping the boat would come retrieve the cages, but that was not its intention.

Nice light on the river. I especially enjoy the glow on the docks. Wonderful contrasts as well.

A very peaceful sunrise, wouldn't mind being here myself. I really like how you framed the docks in your shot.

Much of the beauty in life is found in people who care.
Yes, I also like the docks in the foreground, it really makes the shot for me.

Love the posts against the water and the hint of a boat in the sunlight.

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.

I love the tonal range in this one. Well done! And many thanks for your comments on my photo Half way up. Apologies for taking so long to acknowledge these, but we have been away from home a lot, often in remote areas with no internet access.

Bary Observe the masses, & then do the opposite.
The suns a bit blown out, but other than that, very nice. I'm enjoying the contrasts here as well.
