Little Toot

There is something fascinating about a tugboat. When I was a kid, I had a Little Golden Book about a tugboat, called "Little Toot." The curious thing is that tugboats haven't changed much in half a century, at least on the outside. Coming back from Philadelphia, I saw this tug as we approached a bridge, and I only had one chance to shoot it. But it is a perfect tug - all in red, and with such an interesting background, and late in the day with nice light to boot.
