"This photo hung for many years on the walls of the original Clearwater Lodge at Cassel, which was owned and operated by Dick Galland. We planned and set up set up this picture to juxtaposition the boat between the iconic reds barns just at sunset.  Dick even had the boat painted olive green for the picture.  My personal photo credo: Light, Composition and Moment make a great image."  -Val Atkinson
