Paddlewheelers

New Orleans

Vendors at the conference I'm attending provided many choices of entertainment for attendees. A favorite was the paddlewheeler trips up and down the Mississippi. Yesterday evening I watched a couple of the boats jockey for the landing from my room as I dressed for dinner.

Great composition! Captures a bit of the New Orleans spirit. I like the way the boats are heading in opposite directions. Very nice.

I'm still enjoying New Orleans through your eyes. Thanks. Enjoy some crawfish for me!

Lovely image.
When I lived in Ky. We'd see a lot of this on the Ohio river. Especially near Derby time. Unfortunately I didn't have a decent camera then. :(

Gayle, very nice capture. It’s hard to get the two together in one photo.

Big smile as I opened this...so representative of the Mississippi..Mark Twain comes to mind. Loving your trip.

Fun shot. I especially like that the Natchez is churning away so strongly.

Yes, this view has been a real treat. I feel very fortunate. I wish I could spend a little more time in my room, however. I need sleep!

Great catch getting them passing each other. Like the angle of this too.
