Default Tug Boat and Boom

Photographers Comments
Image for the 2009/ 365. This photo was taken from the Albion Ferry .. whilst we were crossing the Fraser River. Soon this service will be gone .. they have built a new bridge called the Golden Ears which will have toll booths on it. The Albion ferry takes approximately 5 - 8 min. and its free .. Guess that is the so called sign of progress. Mount Baker in the bg.

Hi Else, great composition and a lovely scene which obviously means something to you. I think the white border compliments the image but agree with Den, it is very blue.

Hi OTPM and Muriel, I am adding the original here just have resized it .. This is right out of the camera, the only thing that I had done with this photo is, burned the mountain to bring out the detail and used dodge tool for the water and boat ... Maybe you can suggest what I should have done. Should tell you that I had only the Haze filter on the camera .. as you can see clear blue skies ..
Cheers
Else
