I have been on that river a few times when I was young and foolish in my 14' boat! Were you on a boat or taken from the other shore?

Hi there! For years now I had little interest in photography, the only thing I did was buying gear... But now life is more in balance and I'm regaining curiosity into this wonderful hobby. Fortunately a friend gifted me a set of 50 "inspiracles" photo inspiration cards with individual tasks. I have now four lenses in my stable and what I do is to draw a card and complete the task with each of my lenses, and then move on to the next card. It's not really about "that one shot!" but about practicing creativity, at least I feel motivated again.
The current task is "take a picture from behind you subject/object":

That is an great way to keep motivated with your photo work. Sometimes I will create a project.

Yes, and I feel the effect already: I have some more "from behind" pictures where I like the base idea but want to change the composition now, so I'll go out the next days and re-do them in the other, maybe better way.

I took the Circle Line Sightseeing cruise. The shot was taken from the boat. It was a beautiful night out.

This is my friend's 1953 Studebaker Pickup. His grandfather bought this new in 1953, and when he died, my friend got it and restored it...
