"MV Constitution" Photo

Photographer’s Note

One of Vancouver's most famous water vessels- the 100ft long 'MV Constitution' Paddle Wheeler is well know as the party boat in Vancouver's waters.

Departing from Coal Harbour it's often seen cruising around Burrard Inlet, Stanley Park, English Bay, False Creek & Granville Island. I've been on the boat once for a party and two other occasions for dinner parties.

I had the option of posting this one in color, however I chose B&W to bring more focus to the strong lines in contrast to the wispy clouds.

I hope you like the shot,

Hi Dan, wonderful B&W photo. I like the boat view, the white contrasting very well with the grey background.
Well done.

Hi Dan,
The b&w format work well with this old paddle wheeler.
Wonderful sharp details to its intricate design.
Love the wispy clouds in the sky.
The clarity is superb.
