[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
My Wife and I took our daughters and their family on a dinner cruse on the Memphis Queen Paddle wheel boat. This tug was pulling up on the starboard side to pick up food from our boat. It was a beautiful evening. The muddy Mississippi River dosen't look muddy in the late afternoon and night. I hope you enjoy

Fantastic golden sunset, very nicely composed and captured. The warm colors and lighting create a serene setting and the silhouette of the boat placed in the path of the sun's last rays is very nice.
Well done!

Absolutely gorgeous capture. The clouds, trees, and the light of the sun create a three demensional effect. Colors and contrast are phenominal. The ole river even looks like a serene lake in this post.

Excellent sunset photo Jim!
It seems as the perfect place to be. It is well composed and lighted. You have toned perfectly the sun colours.
Well done!
