Excellent! As I'm sure others have already mentioned, this is wonderfully vintage. Great composition, too.

A pleasing photo, full of atmosphere. The boat is very diiferent to English canal boats/barges - looking forward to reading where this was taken.

A very nice shot indeed. Looks like a picture you would see in a museum showing the history of a particular place. A little soft around the edges and maybe a little more contrast to seperate the details would make this stand out more. Wonderful crop and awesome subject. Good luck.
