I’ve gotten more into taking pictures of ships of the Great Lakes over the past couple of years. One of the ships that was high on the list to get was the Wilfred Sykes. Normally it never travels to Cleveland as I was told it has been here one other time. Well yesterday marked the second visit and it was a beautiful afternoon along the Cuyahoga. They went down to the steel mill and surprisingly left the mill this morning which made for another round of shots to get of the classic laker. With it being Sunday morning and a holiday weekend, traffic was light on Rt 2 so myself and a few others did the shot looking north off the bridge which isn’t easy since there really isn’t a pull off. The Sykes with assistance from the tug Pennsylvania heads down the Cuyahoga as they are about to duck under NS 1. Once the ship reaches Lake Erie it will turn and burn for Dearborn, Michigan.
