Antique Wooden Boats-5
Two wooden boats running side by side at high speed. These are both 30' triple-cockpit Hacker runabouts, SULTANA and FLASH. I was in a third boat that was pacing these two. This is in the North Channel of the Saint Clair River near Algonac.

Antique Wooden Boats-4
This shot was unscripted. As we were running in the St. Clair River, SULTANA ended up between me and the sun. I had stopped shooting until Mark started making some high speed turns while heading for the photo boat. This shot is backlit but I like the action of the turning boat. And it is heading right at me!

Antique Wooden Boats-2
Here is SULTANA at speed in the St. Clair River near Algonac. Lake St. Clair was too choppy but we would not have had any annoying background had we been able to use it. The river was smooth but there wasn't room to get away from the distractions of the shoreline.
I mostly used a 100-400 IS Canon lens.

Rudder-Lake Freighter
Here is a close-up shot of the rudder on a freighter underway in Lake St. Clair. I am almost at water level as I was shooting from a 21 foot boat with fairly low freeboard. The shot was difficult because I was framed tightly with the lens at 400mm and the boat was rocking and rolling. And I dared not get any closer as this behemoth churned by me.
