American Queen Steamboat Sunset on the Mississippi River in Natchez, Mississippi.

I captured this beautiful sunset photo from the veranda of our suite on the American Queen Steamboat as we were pulling out of Natchez, Mississippi. Using the wide-angle lens and taking advantage of the iPhone 11 Pro’s 3-second setting. The phone did an admirable job.

My iPhone X would have struggled with this scene.  I’m happy with the camera in the iPhone 11 Pro, and it appears that a great many more of the photographs that I shoot while traveling will be able to come from my new phone.  The only exception?  A long zoom.

Take a peek at this photograph I captured of a moonlit night on the Mississippi River in Baton Rouge.

Sailing down the Mighty Mississippi River with our new friends at the American Queen Steamboat Company was a magical experience.  Every night, the steam calliope would echo across the river signaling that we were pulling away from the dock.  And, the beautiful sights of creation nightly pulled on our heartstrings.  Simply magnificent. 🙂

I will be writing a number of articles about our experience sailing the Mississippi River on the American Queen Steamboat.  Stay tuned.
