Description
Well, technically, they're boats. I believe the swanky Madison Avenue term for these expensive nautical contrivances is "pleasure craft." Some how "Down to the Lake in Tangerine Pleasure Craft" didn't sound as good as the original Kipling. Although, on second thought, it does have a kind of zingy Tom Wolfe quality to it. As a matter of fact, I think I actually like it better.
Photographed at Belmont Harbor in Chicago on June 26, 2010.

I love your Tangerine series, and this is a welcome and unexpected addition! Boats ... who knew? I love the clouds reflected in the water. Another nice surprise! :)

I might just have to steal that title! What a shot! I remember the night this was taken and how warm it was, in comparison to now! Brilliant shot and without a tripod too. Hopefully, Chicago slows down in terms of replacing that odd sodium vapor light: the city is switching, slowly, to metal halide lamps, which apparentl produce far less "light migration" and well...your alley lights are a perfect example of those new lights. If your camera settings are all wrong, you can still get a semi-tangerine hue, but for some reason, "metal halide series" doesn't have the zip and zing of "Tangerine Series." And all of that is to say that this is a brilliant shot! I like it immensely!

Wow...dramatic happenings on the edge of Lake Michigan. Not sure how you coaxed the color tangerine out of this image but I do like it!

Yachts. Tangerine yachts. Super pic, I was seeing some sort of organic spikey thing for a second. I expect the owners wives may be organic spikey things..the folk on these are often a tad up themselves in our harbour.

Excellent shot.

This is an excellent addition to your Tangerine Series. You show the old harbor in a totally different light. Excellent shot.

The low clouds in this image create a very interesting effect, lending an almost claustrophobic feel, especially with their duplication in the reflections. And this is completely at odds with the brightness of the overall image, and the nature of your subjects. Excellent capture!
