366 Days of 2012, Day 293 - Iconic Popeyes

The PopEyes's have been part of Adelaide's history since 1935 when Popeye I was built and put into service carrying 20 people up and down the Torrens River.

Between 1935 and 1982 there were a total of five Popeyes with Popeye V carrying Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip during their 1977 visit to Adelaide. In 1982 the old wooden Popeyes were replaced with three shiny new fiberglass ones, Popeye I,II and III.

This naturally lit shot required a long 30 second exposure but even with the gentle current they did not move about too much allowing me quite a good image.
