I took this after sunset

A nice set and the tugs add a nice plus. I always like tug boats since
I was a kid. Tuffy the tugboat has never left me.

I sailed on tugs and towed oil rigs for two years. When we drill for oil off
the east coast I'm packing my bag.

Obviously, I'm not dealing with reality.

Anyway...

I was surprised this even came out. It was getting dark and the barge is at
least 1/2 mile away. That's Cousins Island, Yarmouth in the back ground.


I set the ISO at 1600 and the shutter speed is around 1/30 and I don't have
a tripod. I set the camera on a railing to keep it still.

I also had to decrease the quality of the photo to post it.

I don't know how to take a 5MB photo and reduce it to 500k without reducing
the quality.

It's nice to be back.

The Bow Sirius is anchored at Hussey Sound and is docking again Tuesday. I
will try to get a deck shot of this Jungle Gym.
