This is an old photo. The "Mississippi Queen" has been replaced by a more modern paddle steamer called "Louisiana Star". She carries tourists around the harbour in Hamburg.

A really lovely paddle boat, so big and looks like a nice ride. I love to see the city in the background Raj!

This is a good capture, the colorful paddle boat, with the city in the background makes for a nice contrast of old, and new.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Beautiful old paddle wheeler, where I use to live in Kentucky our city use to have a steamboat race every year. So did you have a ride on her, they make you feel like you're back in time.

Great shot and post, Raj. The colors are beautiful and I love the comp. To bad they replaced this beauty. Excellent camera work and narrative.
