Good evening!

December is a busy month for Buoy tenders ships. Before the formation of ice, all summer ( lighted ) buoys are replaced by winter buoys ( espar ) . Those buoys are not equipped with lights. They are profiled as long double conic shape. They are buit to allow ice flows to pass over them without damaging the structure of the buoy.

The ship's crew is now finishing tying her up alondside section No. 3 in Trois-Rivieres after a day of work on the St-Lawrence river channel.

Techinally; Image slightly cropped. Played with levels, contrasts. Resized, sharpened, added frame & Title.

Cheers!
Robert

PS. I will be back later this week with critiques and comments . Thanks for your patience.

Cheers!
Robert

Hi Robert,
Beautiful picture. I love how you captured the light of the dusk.

Nice end of the day shot Robert. Closeness to the ground of the camera adds to the effect given off.

Great Photo Robert, The Setting sun hopefully the end of hard days work for these guys. Very peaceful photo. TFS

Salut Robert,
Une photo magnifique qui a beaucoup de caractère et de puissance. Composition dynamique avec l'orientation de la coque et celle des lampadaires. J'aime la sihouette du bateau contre le ciel coloré. Je partage l'idée de Claudine concernant la resssemblance avec une toile. Juste un petit bémol sur l'inclinaison des lampadaires qui serait facile à corriger avec l'outil torsion. Bravo encore une fois! Annie

Bonjour Robert,
Je découvre cette superbe photo ce matin.
J'aime beaucoup les photos prisent à cette heure de la journée, la faible lumière fait souvent ressortir le contour des choses et crée une belle ambiance, c'est aussi à cette heure que les ciels sont les plus beau, comme sur ta photo.
Bien vu.
Salutations.
Pierre

REally nice clear crisp shot Robert! A lovely sky! It looks miserably cold! I'm glad I'm here in front of the fireplace!
