Day 358

ISO 400, 28mm, f/18, 25.0 sec.

Day 358 - Rolling on the river

Salem's own river boat, the Willamette Queen.

I was watching A Day with Jay Maisel on Kelby Training this week and one of the tidbits of knowledge that Jay passed on was "Never go back to shoot something, shoot it now."

Last night I stood in this very spot to shoot the Willamette Queen. They brought the lights up on the boat just as the skies were turning quite dark and I fought like crazy with the exposure.

Tonight when I went back, there weren't any lights at all on the Queen. Go figure.
