coast guard cutter Mackinaw returning to port

Green Bay of Lake Michigan

.. this vessel was built at Marinette Marine in Marinette, WI, and
is on shakedown trials for the past week or so; as it was returning to
the harbor I heard the bridge commander giving orders over the ship's
loudspeaker and it brought back many memories ....

I can picture you relaxing on the dock at sunset waiting for that perfect light like you caught here. Your photography is not only an artistic pursuit but therapy as well.
