Yes, looks like this sail boat really needed the bridge open. Good view, focus and frame with silhouetted masts on the ship. Good job.

I love the river scape images. Sky is beautiful with the soft white and blue. Clarity good, focus good, lighting works for this image.

Good composition in this well balanced and nicely framed image. Like how you used the smaller boat to show the perspective of the scene. Focus is good, showing details and movement of the water. I think, however, that the image could use a little more light to show up the subjects. Good initial impact. Thanks for sharing.

Fun to see these old sailing ships and looks like they had to raise the bridge all the way up for this one to get through. Tall masts! Nice shot of it coming into the harbor Mary. Looks like we're all going to the archives these days. I've run out of new stuff to post as well. Good photo and a fun view.

Comment from Rose Mary S
Great imagery, I live near several of these bridges, as annoying as it can be at times. When you stop to truly witness the scene, It is amazing to watch the boats and ships sail majestically on the water. The image is sharp, focused, and detailed.

Nice combination of the old and the new. Well done. I would like a little more light on the masted ship. Alas, we have to take what we get! Cheers, James.
