The mariner remembers when a child,
on his first voyage, he saw it fade and sink
And when returning from adventures wild,
He saw it rise again o’er ocean’s brink.
Steadfast, serene, immovable, the same,
Year after year, through all the silent night
Burns on forevermore that quenchless flame,
Shines on that inextinguishable light!
··· Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ···
The American Mariner loading coal at MERC for Marquette provides a nice backdrop as UP's twice-weekly local heads back to Superior.
Stature of the Ancient Mariner sculptured by Alan B Herriot. Located in Watchet Harbour UK. The village being inspiration for the poem of the Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
The American Mariner freighter making it's way into Lorain this evening, just after sunset. My wife's photos came out much better, as she was there before me. I came right after work and just barely caught it.
To celebrate summer time, nothing better than a hot colored picture!
I've been working on some color pictures and I will be slowly adding then to my portfolio.
This picture is from St Mary Island, Rochester. There is a path that follows the river Medway that ends in with this structure called Mariners. It is just off an industrial plant where you can see plenty of stuck boats in the mud with great opportunities for photography.
Because it was sunrise, I though that would be a great shot. It wasn't easy though. My 16-35 lens could barely get all the structure and I was pretty much lying on my back!!!! This is handheld picture. I really wanted to get it on my tripod, but it was impossible. I wish I had a tokina 11-16 (or my D800 now so it would be full 16mm instead of 24 on my D7000).
Post processing, I worked with saturation masks and some luminosity. I have also done some brightness in the sky (center part) and removed some unwanted boat masts that were causing your eye to get lost.
What you guys think?

Wathcign CNN and following the Earth Quake in NZ and Hurricane Earl
Good news that Earl is more of shore and not as strong as originally expected
On the 7.2 Earthquake in NZ, seems quite a bit of Damage in Christchurch, but good thing was the timing at 4:30 in the morning most people where at home so hopefully not to many injuries
Hope all my family and friends back home in NZ are oK
A more traditional 10-stop ND shot of the pier at Mariner's Point. Though a different composition, it gave me a lot of insight between the two methods, this and the composite approach. I might like the composite more for sake of reduced noise by stacking so many images together, but man does it take some time to process an image like that. :s

This is a great place to look at sunsets. Especially if you have Windlight.
Also cats.

I'm not sure what it is that attracts me so much to the mariners' chapel - except that it is a small unpretentious building, dwarfed by warehouses (also unpretentious) and it has been there for a long time. My maternal grandmother came from a family of master seamen who lived on the banks of the Severn - and I reckon mariners echo in my blood. Maybe this is compounded by my paternal ancestors who came from Ireland during the potato famine - my paternal grandfather's family to Liverpool and my paternal grandmother's family to Newcastle (my grandparents were firsr cousins) - they too lived near ships and the coast.
