I hadn’t even thought of using as a Wheels entry. I decided not to enter that challenge because I couldn’t think of anything interesting around here with wheels. Doh!

Yes, I went a bit overboard with the color balance in Photoshop. In the original photo the boat and foreground were a bit brighter than the background, making the boat stand out just a little bit. I tried to enhance that, and went too far.

I’m not sure. We see it going by all the time, but I never paid it much attention. I believe it does dinner cruises between Portland and Astoria. We attended a very nice wedding a few years ago that was held on a boat similar to this one. It was lots of fun.
