I think she was ... By: marius478. on 06 Sep 10, 05:15:11 I think she was unladen as she was really cruising (as one can see from the water breaking over her bow!) It is quite a handsome ship for being a modern? one.

I'm glad you like it.it is a rather interesting effect! :)

Where did you shoot this? and what kind of editing program?
The picture went black though...
The Great Lakes bulk freighter the S.S. Edwin H. Gott, up-bound on the Detroit river on 8/28/2010 at 11:43 a.m. Video taken from Bishop park in Wyandotte, Michigan. I love that there were a lot of sailboats to give an idea of the immense size of this freighter!
Great footage! The ... By: hurricanejones1. on 02 Sep 10, 21:52:49 Great footage! The boats do give you a better idea of the? real size.Those freighters are really something.

Poor quality due to it being a video from my Blackberry device but it was all I had to use.The Interlake Steamship Company freighter the S.S. Herbert C. Jackson, 690 ft long, passing under the drawbridge entering the Ford Rouge plant in Dearborn, MI at about 6:16 a.m. on Wed,August 25th,2010.
Another terrible special effects video I made on 8/10/10. I might remake it later, but it is basically another test to fool around with the video recorder.
Video of the Interlake Shipping Co. 1,000 ft. freighter S.S. Mesabi Miner, down bound on the Detroit river, August 8, 2010 at about 2:30 p.m. Video taken at Bishop park in Wyandotte, Michigan.

I didn't get to see any freighters to video so I took this little video of a sailboat on the Detroit river,Sunday August 1st,2010 at Bishop park in Wyandotte Michigan. Pleasant little video. :)
Desgagnés Tankers ship the S.S. Vega Desagnes. Down bound on the Detroit river at 3:15 p.m. on 7/25/2010. Video was taken at Bishop park in Wyandotte Michigan.
The BBC Chartering ship the S.S. Elbe,down bound on the Detroit river on 7/24/2010 7:00pm at Bishop park,Wyandotte Michigan.I think this ship is a "saltie" as it is BBC Chartering and as indicated by the greater amount of rust visible.She is obviously unladen.
The Lafarge freighter/barge the S.S. Innovation,down bound on the Detroit river on 7/24/2010 6:50pm at Bishop park,Wyandotte Michigan. Note the Samuel De Champlain,a 140 ft articulated tug assigned to her and attached to the stern (it resembles an elongated deck in the rear.)They used to tow barges with a line but this sounds like a safer way to do it over long distances.
Thanks for posting. ... By: gpooleii. on 17 Oct 11, 03:45:11 Thanks for posting. Just saw this freighter unloading cement in St. Joseph, Michigan? - October 16, 2011
The S.S. Ojibway down bound on the Detroit river at Bishop park in Wyandotte Michigan on Sunday July 18th 2010, one of the bulk freighters that ply the Great Lakes. There is no sound because I didn't know it was off; oh well, I DO like silent movies after all! :)
My grandfather was ... By: cavalrytm. on 08 Apr 12, 05:54:50 My grandfather was a first mate on the Great Lakes freighters for 30+ years. He could have been a captain, but never wanted to. He was on the George Steinbrenner and the Kinsman Independent, which is? now name the Ojibway.
My grandfather passed away 13 years ago when I was a little kid and I was shocked to find out his ship is still out there in active service. I want to see it someday. Where is it usually?
The Ojibway is my ... By: GreatLakesShips. on 24 Jul 10, 00:30:13 The Ojibway is my favorite? ship!
Good video..thanks for posting!
Video of the Algoma Central Company's Great Lakes bulk freighter the S.S. Captain Henry Jackman down bound on the Detroit river on May 23rd, 2010. I took this video with my digital camera and I don't know how to turn the sound on. But I kinda like it. It seems more serene and peaceful this way, don't you think? As a size comparison check out the fishing boat running alongside her!

I've never been quite this close to an operating train before.My boss and I trainspotting! :D kinda boring really;I thought more would happen while I was filming but ,eh....
It is indeed Dancin' Dan again!This time as captured by our industrial painter extrordinare Gilbert!Just one of the many ways we goof around and blow off steam! :)
Lunchtime at work; if I had been on the clock at least I would have gotten paid to endure this...
(P.S. this is NOT the Dan I reference in my other videos!)
Yes!It's the same video again!I just got some new editing software and have been trying it out.I think I like this almost a little better.Kind of like being on drugs without the consequences! :)

I travel to Canada to disassemble the nefarious Durian Fruit with my friend Dan.This fruit is notoriously smelly but is said to be delicious;this could get ugly...
