heh. Thanks. 
Very nice shots, Bob.
I know it's a bit 'artsy' of me but I've always preferred black and white photography, when it comes to 'recording' things especially. I think the lack of colour makes the mind focus {Yeah! Photographic principles based pun attack!} on the details of the subject and the framing of the picture.
Who is the distinguished 'lady' moored at the pier? She looks like a Auxilliary Cruiser from the 40's to my eye? I'll do some research ...
EDIT: ... she's not Little Rock is she?

Cheers, Bob :tup:.

Great shots Bob! Nice PP on them!
Nice!
It's too bad the industry around the Great Lakes is dying out. They really are a beautiful place to live.

Suk, Your shot's from the old museum. I can tell from the destroyer USS The Sullivans behind the Little Rock. Current position is between the shore and the cruiser. I'm planning a trip back to spend some quality time with both gals, and hopefully the USS Croaker (submarine).

Thank you. Friend n me hit the waterfront this afternoon after a meetup. I dragged along the point n shoot and just had some fun. Shelley's given me some great tips and I'm screwing around with things seeing what I can do. Biggest challenge I'm having is to see things differently than I'm used to.
B&W is really working for you, dude!
