POTW: Now this is Revolutionary

The Photo of the Week roams the waterfront, looking for great shots, especially yours. Send your photos from home or abroad, from your marina or vacation. Your call as long as its oats, boating people, pets, signs. You name it.

…you understand now why you came this way.
