"Docked" by Wexx
It is a great tragedy, of course I mean this trip. Marquette, Michigan, such a wonderful place. I can envision the scenic photography that my light capturing box should be recording, but alas, suck-ass weather keeps it snuggly-tucked away in its carrying case. Why, why must you do this to me, I ask? The torture of my mind seeing beautiful photographs that are impossible to collect upon.
I shot this one anyway. Its simple, a sailboat docked for the winter. But, I didn't let a lack of sunshine kill it out. Screw it, I did the unthinkable... I used PhotoShop to tone the hell out of this one. It came from the camera looking like a mega-turd that Andy Rooney would spat lousy commentary about. But, by God, I tried to make it look like a dream. Be it a dream or not, I did my best. And what else can you ask of a man, other than his absolute greatest devotion to a cause, even if that cause is photography? Nothing, I say, nothing. So be it.
And this might just become the IMAGES of Marquette magazine cover.
Well, this one came straight from one of the two hotel pubs I am staying at. The server was beautiful, and sweet. She invited me to the next joint since the taps close early here tonight. I took the ticket and I would be a fool not to go along for the ride, right? Yessir, think I will join in the fun... Hunter would.

Why do you complain the lack of sunshine?
It's a beautiful photo and if you've used PhotoShop for getting that result - who cares?
