It is hoped that you would respect my ownership of the images posted here on Shutterbug Underexposed, despite the ease with which you could copy my photos. If you would like a true photographic print of any of my images, please contact me at goodiesbaker@yahoo.com and I will be happy to provide you with one.

I took this on a very chilly morning back in November. The sunrise wasn’t much to speak of, so I turned my camera in the opposite direction to see what I could see. This is what I saw, a ship waiting for the light to come up so that she could raise her sails and set off out onto the Bay. I shot this down in Yorktown on Riverwalk Landing very close to the bridge.

Somehow, there is a sense that the boat is eager to be under way now that the day is about to begin. Feels more than just a photograph, more like an event.

Beautiful. I've seen lots of sunsets, but I don't often see the sunrise. Not like I can see much here where I'm at anyway.

Beautiful image with a very "period" appearance. This boat looks like it could have been photographed anytime in the last 70 years or so. Very nice.
