Description
the only photo I took full shot and that was from a gameing pattleboat where people lose money. guard stop me from takeing photos. i told him I just takeing photos of the USS Kidd. he told me to get off the property to do that so I walked about 30 feet and took mor photos and photos of the gameing ship too and no one stop me from doing that. Never went in side the gameing ship and will not go in for sure now. I stand out side the land and take photos of all the sad people leaveing the gameing ship. that all I saw comeing out that place.
Anyway some ask for the full shot so here it is. the bent pipes in front the ship is not part of the USS Kidd. I got some shot of that somewheres lol.

It's a nice photo Jock. It's a shame the guard gave you such a hard time about wanting to take pics of it.
nice to see the kidd in full. good not to go to the gaming ship they rob you.
Great details, excellent shot! Thanks for sharing...
Nice "boot" Jock! Wish you a great weekend, hug's Ute
great capture Jocko , excelente composition.
An impressive shot my friend......!!!!
Interessantes Foto.
Jock, I was interested as to why this ship could be so close to shore. Goggled and cam up with the following which may be of interest; If you are visiting during the latter part of the year, you will see the KIDD sitting high and dry in her cradle. This unique design allows her to compensate for the seasonal rise and fall of the Mississippi River each year. The water level of the Mississippi in Baton Rouge can vary as much as 40 feet each year!!! Each spring when the snow melts in the Rocky Mountains, the Appalachians, and throughout the Midwest, the resulting waters flow into the river systems and empty into the Mississippi River. The added rainfall of the spring does the same. As a result, the waters of the Mississippi rise until the KIDD lifts off of her cradle and floats at her mooring. When summer comes, the rainfall up north slackens, the river falls, and the KIDD sits back down in her cradle, drydocked for another year until spring comes again. George
beau bateau!
Good shot.
Fascinating capture!!!!
That's a super interesting shot Jock! Well done.
Excellent Jocko...all the gaming boats in the world could go away and I would never miss them! I was in Las Vegas for a family wedding in February and did take photos inside a couple of casinos...security guards are there but no one cares what you photograph in Vegas:)
Great shot!!!
BEAUTY
A nice pictorial tour of this impressive vessel.
She is in wonderful shape and you got a great shot of her. Dana
Excellent!
Good shot. But you can't lose money to the casino while you're taking pictures!!! LOL ;)
Superb shot! I wouldn't spend my money at the casino either, how rude of the security guard!
another cool shot ..
