I think that this is a shot with a cuteness factor, Donna, which might seem odd given that it's a shot of a couple of working ships/boats...

We do get the impression of a sturdy and hard-working wee tug boat battling through the waves. Very nicely taken :-)

Have to ask...did you mean "lose" in the title?

HI Donna, This may sound silly, but tugs look like "happy" boats to me! I also like the blue and black colors of the boat. The blue water is spectacular with the blue sky. Nice job. Lisa

WOW..does it get scary out there? And was your spelling of the word "Loose" a PUN?? Loose is to untie, lose is to..well...lose something. I can see it as a pun! Very funny! When will we see the Commando near the railing of the ship?..can you put him there, very close....as the ship is pitching back and forth, to and fro?? HAHAHAHA!
B-) Nice work Donna!
Glad to see you posting!

The tugboat and the barge and the blue water are all colour-coordinated Donna.
They looks good here, so steadfast and true!! Nicely captured.
Towing is a special art, and many rules to follow I believe.
I think your sensor need a clean too - a few marks on the sky and water.

Cheers Janice

Have a happy new year - 2009 begins in under 9 hours.

Chuckle...the title grabbed me as well as the image...and together they make a great story. Tug boats always seem to have extra personality somehow, and this is a perfect example of how they can give an extra measure of interpretation to what they do. Great clarity and blue/white marine feel. Well done:)

Hi Donna,
A beautiful capture of the tug boat leading the barge. I guess not many of us gets a chance to take a photo like this! The boats are colour coordinated also!

Hello Donna
I'm always impressed and scared at the same time when I see a small tug fighting against the powerful element of the sea or water in general. It looks so frail and the tower is so high I feel it is going to overturn. You had a striking point of view here and the composition is perfect.
Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year.

Bonjour Donna!

Très belle mise en forme de ta photo!
Et les bleus sur bleus sont superbes!

Je ne maitrise pas assez la langue anglaise pour comprendre le jeu de mot! Désolée...
