This was taken a few years ago on an Excellent Adventure to Lake Superior, which for some strange reason I always think of as Ojibwe Gichigami, which is it's Aboriginal name.
While my dear Photobuds Simone and Richard were busy shooting waterscapes, I noticed a Great Lakes freighter far out on the water, and as always when I see them, I was overcome with a feeling of longing to know the mystery of their voyages. This combined with the dark, scudding sky made for a scene that I had to shoot.
motorized Nikon F2AS
Samyang 17~28 f4.0-4.5 AIS manual focus
Fuji Sensia II 100 ISO colour slide
probably f8 @ 1/60th

The joy of sharing out passions.

The scene also has the mystery behind those pilings stretching out into the water. What were they once attached to, and what happened to it? I like the image very much!
