A couple of humble work boats from the files. I admit they weren't taken with Minolta cameras, but they would have been if Minolta had made a digital camera at the time. Honest, I had a whole locker full of Minolta lenses waiting -- really!

When it is too sunny you can always use a parasol, even on a motorboat

"Old Ironsides," the USS Constitution, the oldest commissioned ship in the world. Once or twice a year it sails out of Boston Harbor on a "turnaround" cruise so that it will weather equally on both sides while docked. While out it fires a cannon salute amid much smoke and noise.
