Tugs and towboats are some of the more interesting working watercraft, IMO.

I'm also a big fan of both. Love towboats, but unfortunately they aren't very plentiful in these parts.

Where are these parts?

Here's a shot I took of one on the East River in NYC. There's a whole flickr site for tugboats if you're interested.

It's part of a B&W series I'm working on called, "Men at Work."

In that case CB, I see nothing wrong with it. Crisp, nice contrast and good tones. Red and white tug?

 

[ceeboy14]

Yep

 

[Rick58]

Nice job!

How do I know it is men, not women?

 

[ceeboy14]

I asked them.

 

[sashbar]

Did they answer? I do not see the answer in the pic. If the answer is not in the pic it does not count.

Are you in charge of the rules of what constitutes a good photograph? Who said, besides you, if it's not in the pic, it doesn't count? It's kind of like religion...you either believe, or you don't...but if those GUYS on that towboat look like women to you, I suspect you hang out in places I do not. On a large wall print, trust me, there's no doubt....and really, what does it have to do with the quality of the image?

Do not take it personally, I was just joking and did not mean to offend. All I was saying was that, unless it is poster size, the title does not match the image, because the men are hardly seen on screen.

I was taking it as a joke. The title, as stated earlier is a part of a collection of work about Men at Work, thus I think there has to be some trust on the part of the viewer these are men. I am not the least bit offended. You have to do something bad to a child or a woman to offend me...other that, I see the world as a level playing field.
