The picture of the chains doesn't do much for me, but I love the photo of the boat.Is there any way to give the sky more colour?

OK Elaine; now you've got me humming Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools" "For five long years I thought you were my man But I found out, I'm just a link in your chain Oh, you got me where you want me I ain't nothing but your fool You treated me mean Oh you treated me cruel Chain, chain, chain Chain, chain, chain Chain of fools" And for the more serious minded- the William Mather is a retired Great lakes bulk carrier steamship, built in 1925 and now a restored floating museum in Cleveland. Used to carry up to 14,000 tons of iron ore to the steel works back in heyday of Cleveland's steel industry. And there you are Lisa; it might just be a boring chain to you girl but it takes me off on yet another voyage of discovery.

I had the same reaction as Peter, and have that song stuck in my mind, to the credit of a powerful image. Thanks for the background on the ship, Peter, which is particularly interesting to me, having grown up near the shores of Lake Michigan. I would bring out the details on the lower part of the ship and the "sky is the limit" on what you can do with that. Love the POV.
