Spotted this handsome tugboat idling in the river during a recent video mission.
Great looking boat, well cared for, and working steadily. (Nikon D810)
SS United States in black and white
Was on the river recently and managed to capture some nice video passing the SS United States, where it has been docked for many years now in Philadelphia. Here’s the video:
That’s the fastest trans-Atlantic liner ever. Impressive even in its current sorry state. Wonder what will happen to it. (captured with Nikon D810)
Propeller Lift
Check out this photo of a crane lifting a ship’s propeller at the Aker Shipyard in Philadelphia, PA USA:
You can see the ship, nearly completed, in the background. In the foreground at the various winches that will be installed on deck. Looking forward to getting more great photos and video of these operations.
GoPro Hero 5 on the waterfront.
I took the GoPro5 on the river with me recently. Did a great job for the little camera that it is. Here’s an example of some footage in real world conditions at dawn (video runs at 2x normal speed):
Pretty good clarity and range to handle the types of light, subject matter. I’ll be doing a more thorough review of the GoPro 5 after I put it through some more paces. Hopefully, I’ll have some interesting subjects to work with. Stay tuned.
