M/V City of Chicago

Some days you go out on the river and you see very little. Some days you see a dozen boats. That's close to what happened to me today, although I got good looks at only 11 boats.

Here's one, Kirby's City of Chicago as it dropped its tow at Virginia Point in Kenova WV before it went down to the former Boggs Landing.

The light was interesting. When the sun was out, it was pretty bright. When the heavy clouds covered the sun, it got kind of dark. This was winter light, which is different from summer light when it comes to photography.

I'll process and post a few other pics from today soon, I hope.

And if you were on one of the boats around the Big Sandy from about noon to 2 p.m., that was me in the blue shirt and the black jacket.
