[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
also taken from the observatory on the 47th floor of the St. Lukes building in Tsukiji, Japan...this boat/ferry/ufo plows up and down the Sumida river giving cruises for paying customers. I believe some of these cruises offer lunch or dinner. Very interesting boats...especially from this point of view.

Hi Damon,

It's like a massive arrow. Those boats must have a massive engine bay inside! Is it a wingboat, open from the middle and hoovering on two wings left and right, or is it a normal vessel with just immense engines? :-)
The vessel feels a bit overly sharpened, but at the 47th floor at 60mm, I assume this is a crop out of a bigger photograph and you needed to sharpen a bit for that reason. I do like the minimalistic approach in how you post it and I do like the horizontal placement in the composition. Nice.

Greetings,
Dennis
